The role of the intermediary meant that Sheikh Salis Shaban was the confidant between this two high profile personalities and will have access to their inner circles. Dr Nkrumah had instructed all the security protocols at the flagstaff house to immediately open the gate without any further interrogation whenever the name Shaban was mentioned. He the young Shaban is my special messenger, Nkrumah told them. And Sheikh Salis Shaban whenever he finally arrives infront of Dr Nkrumah, he directs him to a dedicated place to keep whatever Niass had sent him with.
According to Sheikh Salis Shaban, on one particular moment, when he come to Dr kwame at the Flagstaff , he noticed at the corner of his office a nice traditional muslim prayer mat laid with the tasbih on it.
