Now this is a proper Ghanaian house… see the windows…. No plenty led lights and things

@TheGhanaNation Looks like by its own standards it has fallen off

@tv3_ghana A crime that became too costly to continue coupled with the invention of technology, some from this same people

Britain led the fight to end slavery, we shouldn’t be paying for a crime we helped eradicate - Kemi Badenoch 3news.com/news/britain-l… #Slavery #EndSlavery #KemiBadenoch

I will keep my thing brief. Teach your kids your language, they will learn English in school!

@FAnnohDompreh When you get close to him again, tell him he is too old for the presidency. He should abandon the Pseudo 'thank You' tour campaign. Cheers

He often takes a swipe at us as a party, but, when I got closer to him, I admired him for these; Humility, wisdom, courage and above all ‘practical’ intelligence…Chairman!

At Harvard Law School, there is a stone with a plaque that acknowledges the contribution of slave labor to the school's construction. This is a token proof of how much of foreign reality is built by and on slave labor. Slavery is largely responsible for the economic disparity among societies.

@DonkorST @S_OkudzetoAblak sir please for your attention. Thank you

I encourage the Government of Ghana not to end the conversation on slavery at the United Nations. It should ensure that the public schools in Ghana adopt a decolonial historical perspective on slavery and colonization. Time has shown that many people are unaware of the nature, scope, and character of the slave trade. That largely informs the ignorant opinions on the subject to the extent of even equating it with the internal slave trade in Africa. Shape your citizens' education on this subject. They are the first victims of colonisation and Eurocentricism.

@FaraiMazhindu Two truths can lie side by side

Singapore and Ghana both gained independence around the same time, but their paths couldn't be more different. Today, Singapore is a global titan in infrastructure and digital innovation, going blow for blow with the USA. Meanwhile, Ghana remains trapped in the past, struggling to move beyond historical shadows while the world moves forward. It's proof that misplaced priorities are the real barrier to African progress.

@KZankeli @BellRibeiroAddy I can see a trace of Freddie Blay, the Akuffo family, and some prominent businessmen of today in the list. Their wealth is really from generations oo

Continuity of Anti-Slavery Across Generations 1. While Britain abstained from supporting the motion to label the transatlantic slave trade as a crime against humanity, 2. @BellRibeiroAddy, British MP for Clapham and Brixton Hill, has firmly supported a position aligned with her ancestral homeland, Ghana. 3. This stance echoes that of her ancestor, Thomas Birch Freeman, a Euro-African missionary whose family background included links to enslavement. 4. Freeman was a vocal critic of slavery in the Gold Coast in the 1840s. 5. While, many of his contemporaries at time, mainly prominent African and Euro-African elites, such as J.C. Grant (forefather of Paa Grant of UGCC fame), Joseph de Graft, Owuo Nemim, Kofi Blay, Mantses Ankrah & Dowuona, Togbi Amegashie, and Kwesi Akuffo, were involved in slave trading & resisted abolition, 6. Only to stop when officially banned the trade in 1874. Same year Ghana became a formal British colony. #Ayekoo!

@KZankeli @BellRibeiroAddy You're trying paaa

Dr, Do Better! 1. Ghana’s first police station at Prampram was not established by the British. Neither was it built in 1833, nor did it follow the British abolition. 2. In fact, the Danes built it in 1814—nearly two decades earlier, and about a decade after they initiated abolition in 1803. Yes! Before the British initiation in 1807. 3. And well before the eventual British Slavery Abolition Act of 1833. 4. It is literally carved in stone: the pavement mosaic at the Prampram Police Station site makes this clear. It explicitly references “Police Station… 1814… by the Danes.” 5. Interestingly, all this happened long before the Gold Coast became a British colony. 6. That did not occur until after 1850, when the Danes sold all their forts and castles (Christiansborg, Kongenstein, and Prinzenstein) to the British and left the shores of Ghana. #Asomdwee

Ghana will continue to set the pace in taking bold steps for this continent. And all that from the spirit of our illustrious forefathers especially the Great Kwame Nkrumah

Now, that’s a half-truth! 1. Ewe is not a monolith, just as Akan is not. It is/was a cluster of rival polities. 2. In that war of 1869, Asante fought primarily against the Krepi-Ewe states of Ho, Avatime, Kpando, Anfoe, Peki, and their hilly environs. 3. However, Asante armies were hosted and supported by other Ewe subdivisions in Mepe (Tongu-Ewes), Adaklu, and neighbouring towns. These areas provided passage, shelter, and logistical support, enabling Asante operations against inland Ewe groups. 4. Asante also formed alliances with the coastal Anlo-Ewes of Keta & Anloga, who fought alongside them against the Krepi states. This contingent became known as the Anlo-Kotoko. After the war, elite marriages between Anlo and Asante royal families helped sustain this alliance. 5. The war produced captives. Many Krepi-Ewes were taken to Asante as slaves or domestic servants. A sizeable number fled slavery in Asante with Akanised identities, which partly explains the prevalence of Akan surnames (Donkor, Asem, Asempa, Asamoah, etc.) in parts of Eweland today. 6. And Basel missionaries such as Kühne & Ramseyer were also captured; Ramseyer later contributed to the establishment of the Presbyterian Church in Kumasi. The sitting Asantehene was seen in a church named in honour of Ramseyer during the Christmas of 2025. 7. So, it is misleading to claim that Asante went to war against “the Ewe” in 1869. Rather, they fought the Krepi states, with support from other Ewe groups. Ewes fought on both sides of that war. [I know you're a historian, but take this from a non-historian] #Blessings!

@KaylebMawuko @KZankeli @___sonofzeus Anum, is part of the Krepi. Visit Ansec on the mountains. The history is there

@KZankeli @___sonofzeus So the ewes joined some ewes to fight ewes ? What people make up the Krepi States ? Ideally the ewes being fought saw that as betrayal so Asantes fought Ewes

1. Reparations Begin at Home. Ghana’s Special Envoy for Reparations, Ekwow Spio-Garbrah @DrESpioGh, is on a global mission: demanding justice for Africa’s enslavement by Europeans. But here’s the question we keep dodging: 2. What about us? What about the merchants, middlemen, power brokers and coastal elites who sold their own skin-and-kinfolk and whose descendants today sit wrapped in prestige, influence, and inherited cultural capital? 3. Reparations is a necessary conversation. But accountability must be an honest one. This is the beginning of a series. A series on families. Personalities. Quiet dynasties. Wealth that did not fall from heaven, but flowed from ships. 4. Today, we begin in Anlo. With the Nyaho Tamakloes. History is not an accusation but a reckoning. Watch. Reflect. Then decide for yourself. youtube.com/watch?v=reT3Uk…

@appiahflex101 @__Sharyf No, nothing dignifying here. This is retrogress

@__Sharyf How is this a fell off…aren’t you happy young people are doing something to earn a leaving.also this will also speed up transport. The only thing the must be caution is Road safety regulations.

We fell off as a country

@cavitiesgh @__Sharyf Massa

@__Sharyf I’m this is not a bad thing…. These can go where taxis and troski don’t go and at a lower cost. Ghana is not a western country not everyone got the chance to Sch so people are finding ways to make a life let’s stop looking down upon things

@kwaku66k @MantseBi_Ago Test your hypothesis with South Africa and read more

@MantseBi_Ago The British people would have made Ghana far better Kwame Nkrumah rushed for independence tsww

After slavery was abolished in 1833, slave ships returning from the Atlantic offloaded their captives at present‑day Prampram. This event led the British colonial authorities to establish the first police station in the Gold Coast there.
