We don’t need “Akwaaba” stamped all over Kotoka before we realize Twi already walks proudly across the world. In Leipzig, Germany, a whole tram carries “Akwaaba Afrika” through the streets. Our culture does not beg for recognition—it commands it.

But at home, we risk turning living words into empty slogans. A language is not a logo. It is the soul of a people.

The elders say: “If you reduce your stool to firewood, do not be surprised when strangers use it to cook.” Let us not weaken our own heritage in the name of branding.

These are examples of classical Asante/ Ashanti architecture in medieval Ghana. Some buildings like these are enlisted as UNESCO heritage sites, as they paint a picture of how the structures were constructed.

The people of the Asante Kingdom used bamboo to build the inner frames of the houses and then the outer layer would be composed of mud which would be carefully polished and smoothed to a fine and shiny finish.

The architects would then use local clay and natural pigments like red ochre to achieve a distinctive red tone on the base of the buildings that was often noted by early visitors to the region. The houses were regularly re-painted and the mud refreshed making the houses to always look as good as new.
