Titles from the Perspective of a Ghanaian

I was interested in the idea of titles when we were reading Things Fall Apart and decided to do a little extra research on the topic. What I found was not exactly what I was looking for, but, nonetheless, it still helped me understand the culture better than I did previously. The article was written by a former government minister, Elizabeth Ohene, and details her thoughts on titles in Ghana and Nigeria, which she considers to be the place that titles originated in Africa.
