Answer:

His role in establishing the Pan-African Congresses and his agitation for an end to colonialism, made him an inspiration to many African leaders.

Step-by-step explanation:

Nigeria's Nnamdi Azikiwe, met him. Ghana's Kwame Nkrumah, who first met Du Bois at the 1945 Pan-African Congress in Britain

Hope that this helps you :)
