Ejisu must be special place in Ashanti region, there's nothing good comes out of Ashantis but that particular place i respect them. I love Yaa Asantwaa soo much. Who said the women can't do better, give them a chance.

You are such a waste of a human being. Idiot! That's why Ghana can't move forward. Look at your brain. Please go test for tape worm. O

She didn't sell bread and kenkey during her primary school days to survive or pay for her education. As the daughter of a trader, she only helped her mother in her trading.

Thank you. These are some of the "misinformation" being churn out to muddy the waters. The article had polluted to air to the extent that the lady, during her primary school years, had to sell kenkey to support herself which is not true.

Helping our parents during those days doesn't mean that we were on our own without parental support.

My brother say that again o. This lady's father was a Rev Minister of Methodist church, so she schooled at Wenchi because her dad was transferred there. In Ghana's standard you cant say she was poor and had to see to pay her fees. She had good opportunities in education and made good use of it. She and Kwame Pianim are family members.

She was an enigma and the first female Pro VC of the University of Ghana. She was extremely affable to both students and colleagues. She eas very humble and was known to be the darling of most University circle due to her humility and warm reception. Infavt to the point She will great you and ask how you are doing any time She meets you on your way to lectures. All the lectures at the Linguistics Dept are fantástic but Prof Dolphyne is an exceptional Lecturer !!

That's awesome! Prof., Kumaricans are very proud of you. Due to the misinformation that Ashantis' women are less educated in Ghana and they are only interested in trading, I was expecting a person from different Region in Ghana. Well Ashantis' used to trade to support themselves in school because free SHS wasn't for everyone in Ghana.

Say it like it is. If this lady came from the VOLTA REGION, this site would have been flooded with all sorts of insults and whatever but. Voltarians seems to be the only tribe in Ghana who are well educated but the article had made Ghanaians understand that the first "Female Ghanaian professor" came from the people who were often times, described as "Bush people", funny isn't it?

Why referring this to VOLTA REGION? I think you're well aware of the level of education there and the Fantes in the CENTRAL REGION.But be also informed that NOT ALL Professors are regarded as intellectual. My first research goes into which area was the person's professorship? Being a professor in African studies is a LOW GRADE. Being a professor in Cultrual and traditional studies?
