"Professor Ernest Aryeetey, the renowned economist of remarkable international repute and stature..."
What has that really got to do with the point being discussed? Will your position be less tenable if Aryeetey (Blackman, as we used to call him at Okponglo) were not a renowned economist (whatever that means)?
"...predatory whims of the Barbarians, my profuse apologies to John Maxwell Coetzee, the great South African-born Australian novelist, linguist, essayist, translator and the 2003 recipient of the Nobel Literature Prize".
And what has that also got to do with the topic at stake? That he, Okoampa, knows a lot about Coetzee? A lot of info about the writer that is easily available in the public domain?
Excess, excess, excess that is just noise about the writer of the article...
Is it a very US thing to heap encomiums on people? Okoampa does it a lot. Other contributors to ghanaweb living in the USA also do that a lot - encomiums galore on themselves and on others. Where I live, people get embarrased by such things...

Probably, Aggrey, Hayford, Nene Azu, Nanka-Bruce and Guggisberg should be mentioned alongside Danquah as they were instrumental in getting Prince of Wales College on its feet.

Lets be real here. When we are talking University of Ghana, Legon, what we are referring to is what Dr Kwame Nkrumah built from virtual scrap to the majestic but now considerably depreciated infrastructure that stands on that hallowed land.
When Legon was Legon, there were very few educational institutions in the world that could match both its non-racist academic content, prestige and creativity. All these are not synonymous with the name of Danquah.
Anybody, including that two-legged quadruped Okoampa, who is looking around desperately for credit to assign to that social misfit, part-time terrorist, glorious nincompoop and full-time loser called Danquah, should better look elsewhere - anywhere else where the great Kwame Nkrumah did not touch with his magic fingers.
Nkrumah never dies!

Never in the annals of Legon have I heard about Dankua being at the forefront of fighting for the establishment of UG. How can one person fight for this institution single-handedly as you claim?

if Aryeetey was her superior now she is his Boss as the secretary of education. remember not all men of knowledge will rise or attain positions of trust its in the bible read Eclessiates. have you never seen a master being schooled by his servant because in life things changes and even the dull and ignorant can one day be a master over the wise and learned. write something new.

What are disjointed stretch - from Professor Ernest Aryeetey's reelection as VC of Legon to the "Oxbridge Academy of Ghana, otherwise known as the Boakye-Danquah Academy of Advanced Humanistic Studies." Something Rush Limbaugh wouldn't hesitate to pull of.
Your attempt , Ahoofe, to rehabilitate the good name of Danquah, is being hampered by your exaggerations.

Impoverished minds bear no good fruits. Great minds are always looking at ways of affecting others positively and tend to be universal in their outlook. However, mediocre minds are insecure with no self-worth. Their only illusion to self-worth and importance is to dwell on the achievements, real or otherwise, of persons they psychologically identify themselves with- the ingroup. It seems to me Okoampah fits perfectly into this group hence his fixation with all things Akyem- his ingroup. What a mediocre mind!
