This is the first time you have made impact professor. I didnt read the whole article to see if you didnt somewhere bring in politics and tribalism. To educate and challenge forumers should be your call. i find it hard to say but 'Mmo ne adwuma'.
For DNA isan empirical truth, trialled and tested beyond doubt. Well done and 'fair play' to you as the English say.

Good one there at least I have seen a sensible person who can reason and think, first and foremost, what is education at all? In a country where I come from, they defined education as anyone who can read and write English language that is how they defined education in Ghana. A country where a lot of people look down upon those who can't speak and write English language do you think such country can develop no wonder Ghana is a country with good resources but the citizens are mentally weak unable to think and reason as well, they are still slaves to the so-called Europeans. They are still colonized mentally and physically but the reason is that they don't know that they are still under colonization. So in s nutshell that is how illiteracy is defined in Ghana. Then one may ask that how about the countries who are using their own language to study are they illiterates? a country like France, Germany, Japan, South Korea, Finland, Norway, China etc can we classify their education system as substandard because they are not using English language to teach in their institutions? Africans will always embraced everything from west and east without thinking deep and its side effect in the future and we hate our own things so tell me are we humans? We always lionize the oppressors and disowned ours and we called ourselves educational elites now listen to a proverb from Europeans to Africans “you can take a monkey from bush but you can't take bush from monkey" how are we going to interpret it? it's simple to Europeans, Africa is bush let's see how they describe Africa they use the word Sub-Saharan and the question is do we have sub-Europeans or sub-Asians or sub-Americans, etc look how they have cited Africa in a World map, Africa as a continent is always at the bottom of the World map, the question is why they didn't cite Europe, Asia, America and Australia at the bottom but only Africa think about it brothers and sisters, the proverb means an African a monkey can come to western or eastern country to study or do anything but because he/she is from Africa you can't take Africa mentality from him or her then the stereotype goes, they are less humans, they don't have food to eat, always fighting among themselves etc so why Africans shouldn't cling to their own and abandoned their stupid act but yet still Africans are upholding their language and their barbaric culture, 500 years we are still slaves so when are we going to emancipate ourselves as a people created by YHWH.
The time has come for Africans to come together as one people and put their difference away and unit as people it has been a long time in slavery and colonization. The time has come for Ghanaians to put away their difference and unit to develop their nation it has been a long time in slavery and colonization.
God of our fathers have mercy on us especially banana republic of Ghana. Ghana, Ghana a country with good resources I had wanted to gather my people under one canopy as hen gathered it chicks but my people have abandoned their wisdom through thinking and now following the way of westerners through their devilcracy which is called democracy so now my people cannot be able to manage their own affairs, my people do not appreciate things manufactured in their country, my people preach devilcracy and practice vices, my people preach patriotism but they are not patriotic, my people have lost their sense of judging and now we are in a doom state they can't differentiate good things from bad ones and now engulf with tribalism which has become a canker in the country through bogus so-called educational elites and stomachticians who called themselves as politicians to separate the people in other not to come together to fight against their evil planning. A voice calling from within shouting my people, my people come together to build your nation we were created in the same image not let this stomachticians separate you they are doing it for their own selfish gain so wise up, awake from your slumber, the day is far spent and the night is near so let's ignore all these tribalism stuffs and come together as one people because together we can build a better nation.
The only way Africans can develop is to use their own language to study and do everything and stop patronizing anything from east or west, a small country like Ghana we can’t develop it why? Because we have pseudo intellectuals who always claims that they are the best but in reality they are at the bottom of the pit, our education system is not good, our education system does not allow us to think inside and out outside the box so for Ghana to develop it needs critical thinkers and nature incliners who can put things together other than that it will take millions of years we will still be where we are. Anyone who wants to study Nature University can contact me wellsbrains2000@yahoo.com, whatspp 008613566124757 when you contact me tell me which my article that you are interested so we can discuss it deeply because I have presented numerous articles on this web

Hopefully there is more to come by way of a more sensible Dr. Okoampa-Ahoofe.
The skies over the East Coast of the United States must have cleared and brought in divine waters to cleanse him.

I never thought this day will ever come when I will be in total agreement with Prof. Okoampa-Ahoofe. I guess if we live long enough we shall sees some wonders. This Kwame Akuffo guy should not display his ignorance on the subject of DNA to the world in this way. I will leave former soccer star Odartey Lamptey to sort out his issues himself. My only wish would be that he treats this subject with care because it invloves the lives of others, especially the kids. But today should be celebrated by all Ghanaweb readers who have been treated to something different from Prof. Okoampa-Ahoofe. I hope he continues on this path that is more befitting of his academic status.

What a sad, sad thing for the children involved. If it turns out Mr. Lamptey agreed with his wife, Gloria to use artificial insemination to have their children, then by law the children are Mr. Lamptey’s adopted children and he is rightfully responsible for them. Mrs. Lamptey should get half of the marital assets because she hasn’t done anything wrong to deceive her husband of 20 years. It was Mr. Lamptey who wasn’t able to score a touchdown in the marriage for 20 years. You can’t convince me that for 20 years Mr. Lamptey didn't know what was going on in his household. My advice to Gloria is to stop talking to the media since the case is in litigation.

Oh my! This is the only time I'm inclined to agree with Okuampa. The guy may be a retarded Professor, but he hit a bull's eye on this one
