Your answer would be C). Africans gained a majority in the parliament.

The first step in Ghana’s independence was the Africans gaining a majority in the parliament.

Ghana's independence:

Ghana's independence was a time where Ghana, a place in Africa, became independent from Great Britain.

Definitions:

Parliament:

Another word for "government." This is the legislative part of the government

Explanation:

The reason why "C). Africans gained a majority in the parliament" would be the correct answer because Ghana wanted the majority of the government to be African.

During the time, Europeans were taking over and colonizing in Africa, this would be known as the scramble for Africa. When the Europeans were coming into Africa, they were pretty much taking over their governments. This was a big problem because it would be hard for Ghana to be independent if most of its government is British, since the British wouldn't agree with Ghana being independent from Great Britain. The first thing that Ghana did was bring more Africans into their government, since in the government, they needed people to vote with them to make Ghana independent. When they got Africans to be part of the government, the Africans started voting for Ghana to be independent, and the majority of the vote agreeing on the independence of Ghana was from the Africans that were in the government. To sum it all up, Ghana needed to regain its control over the government in order to have hopes for making Ghana independent from Great Britain.

The reason why the other answer choices are incorrect:

The reason why answer choice "A). Kwame Nkrumah became the prime minister." is incorrect because:

Even though he was one of the prime people into helping Ghana become independent, it doesn't take one person in the government to make them independent. Ghana needed most of the government to make Ghana independent, since it was a matter of voting for the independence, one vote is not enough. This is the reason why this answer choice would be eliminated.

The reason why answer choice "B). A military coup seized power in the colony." is incorrect because:

This is something that they would need to do after. A military coup is pretty much a military taking over the government, which would be unconstitutional. This was something that Ghana did not want to do, they wanted to get into the government the right way. This is the reason why this answer choice would be eliminated.

The reason why answer choice "D). Opposition political parties were banned." is incorrect because:

They can't ban political parties thinking that it would do any better to make them independent. If they  were to ban political parties, the people that were part of those parties would still be in the government, but they just need to change their party, which doesn't make a difference of the people part of the government. This is the reason why this answer choice would be eliminated.
