  "And so in a real sense, when it comes to global-level scholarship and technology production, the putative Doyen of Gold Coast and Modern Ghanaian Politics, Dr. Joseph (Kwame Kyeretwie) Boakye-Danquah, still rules the roost."
  
  What a crock of nonsense! Majority of Ghanaians are right: You are really sick in the brain. In your delusions, Danquah is still alive and in charge of Legon.
  
  Every Ghanaian should repeat "Danquah invented modern-day technology" a thousand times and you will eventually believe that he did. That is, if you don't go nuts like Kwame Okoampa first.

  The Idiot-of New York and his bunch of ignoble scholars will never be happy until we change the name of Ghana to Danquah Republic of Ashanti Akyems.
  
  Okoampa, the best clown is writing the book of 20th century world heroes and JB Danquah is on top of everything from his failure to win elections,failure to introduce apartheid democracy,failure to federate Ghana,failure to blow up Nkrumah,failure to derail our independence and his catastrophic failure to conceal his identity as a bribe taking traitor of Ghana. What an excellent record for deluded Danquah followers to cherish!!!

  There are at least 10 widely recognized rankings in the world. Africa also has its own. Which rankings are you talking of?

  It is only a refuge for semi-literate buffoons like you. Where your daily rants on Ghanaweb are counted as "research publications "
  
  You are a complete joke !

  Dubbing the University of Ghana "the Danquah Academy", as you've done, is only in the skewed and bigoted pigment of your imagination. You may satisfy your wild imagination that your so dubbing of Legon is historically accurate, but it will remain solely and exclusively yours. Ghanaians, especially the educated ones, are wiser and more objective than you.

  KNUST is bound to suffer when they would hire and retain the likes of Dr. Amoako Baah and co. Why do you insist on being an ass, Dr. Kwame Okoampa-Ahoofe? The sad truth is that you, Dr. Kwame, thrive at the gutter level of politics because you count on the ignorance of your reader fan base of the ill-informed and knee deep in ignorance.
  
  Nations of the last 50 years aspiring to be democratic failed, in my estimation, because anything less than the standards set by the US is a farce. And it is the promise of the constitution of the USA that draws all the people's of the world to its shores; American schools draw the best from all over the world. Ask all those expatriates who ever visited, lived and or taught in Ghana and most choose Accra because it is Ghana's only gateway to the outdide world and the chance to evacuate Ghana in an emergency evacuation of foreign nationals. It has thus benefited UG at the expense of Ghana's other universities. The truth be said, Dr. Kwame Okoampa-Ahoofe, the people of Ga have allowed even the most useless and undeserving tribes to come to Accra to enjoy and not because of J. B. Danquah and or his hoodlums. And from your own warped conclusions would it not be safe to say that J.B. Danquah saw his own tribesmen to be uncouth thus his choice of Accra if we were to buy into your fallacy that UG is where it is today because of J. B. Danquah? Would a man proud of his folks and tribe choose somewhere else to set up his legacy? Do Presidents of the USA not build their libraries in their home state?
  
  Give me a break with your infantile assertions and illogical deductive thinking. For someone who has no shame enjoying the comforts of another nation made of men and women you have a long way to learn even in an environment built to cure the mentally ill.

  Why is this man so obsessed with schools people attended and where they come from. There are many people in capevars who could have gained admission to university of Cape town if they were in South Africa. There are also many in UCT who might not have gotten admission to UCC.
