  In 1865 Jamestown WAS Accra, not a "suburb". Henry Wharton, what a typical Jamestown name. Why are we so keen to claim him as Ghanaian considering his parentage?

  Hi Tetteh, You have just reveal a common secret. Have you wondered why when the IRA bombs a station their religion is not mention but when an Arab, influenced by political and economic hardship, bombs a station his religion is called to play- Islamic Fundamentalist. Consider the fact that when Israel bombs Gaza it is fighting a right course but when Hamas retaliate with a rocket it is a terrorist group. One can also wonder why Nkrumah, Gandhi, Mandela started their respective struggle for independence they were called terrorist but when the oppressors were exposed and their furhter lies could not wash, they called them liberators. The example can go on and on. Bye
