FOOLISH FOOL...!!!!! You cannot build your history by making forced claims. Kwasiampanin muuuuu... what can the Akuapems do if Tetteh Quarshie is 100% Ga...???? Is it what you wish that will be documented as history for you..???? Crazy dog, what do you lose if Tetteh Quarshie is a Ga who settled in Akuapem, where he achieved this enviable recognition. You are certainly some DEMON with incurable hatred in your heart, but it is your hatred & enviness that will kill you. Now read the facts below:

Tetteh Quarshie was born in about 1842 to a farmer from TESHIE known as MLEKUBO. His mother was known as ASHONG-FIO from LABADI, both hailing from the Ga-Dangme ethnic group. In his teens Tetteh Quarshie became an apprentice in a Basel Mission workshop at Akropong. Due to his hard work he soon became a master blacksmith and was in fact the first blacksmith to be established at Akuapim-Mampong.[1] His hobby was farming.

In 1870, Tetteh Quarshie undertook a voyage to the Spanish colony Fernando Po (now Bioko in Equatorial Guinea). About six years later, he returned to Ghana with several cocoa beans.

CEO position in Cocoa board should be reserved for Ga's in honour of Tetteh Quarshie and Tetteh Quarshie decent should be employed to work at Cocoa sectors, a Country called Ghana is not worthy to die for!
