To Ghanaians, this is very interesting. Like Reggy, there are a lot of Ghanaians who primarily have an English last name who have a history like this. Thanks for sharing.

The Colonists legitimized the theft of Africa's prized minerals such as diamonds, gold, copper and African bodiess for mining what did not belong to Britain! How was it possible for Britain to gain such a foothold in such a large continent as Africa?!
