(Head of Department) Signature Date ii Abstract The present 2012 Akuapem-Twi Bible had been the labour of several revision exercises from its existence as fragments of Bible books till the New Testament was completed and later the first full version published in 1871. Over the years the task of revision work had aimed at eliminating ambiguous phrases and words in the Akuapem-Twi Bible that are not translated in accordance with the thought pattern and worldview of the Akuapem people. However after the 2012 publication of the Akuapem-Twi Bible, there still exist a number of translation and exegetical problems in the translated text; clear examples are 1 Timothy 6:10a, 2 Timothy 1: 10b, 2:20b, Titus 1: 7, 11b which are in focus for this study.

    TECHIMAN MUNICIPALITY Copyright © 2014 Ghana Statistical Service ii PREFACE AND ACKNOWLEDGEMENT No meaningful developmental activity can be undertaken without taking into account the characteristics of the population for whom the activity is targeted. The size of the population and its spatial distribution, growth and change over time, in addition to its socio-economic characteristics are all important in development planning. A population census is the most important source of data on the size, composition, growth and distribution of a country’s population at the national and sub-national levels. Data from the 2010 Population and Housing Census (PHC) will serve as reference for equitable distribution of national resources and government services, including the allocation of government funds among various regions, districts and other sub-national populations to education, health and other social services. The Ghana Statistical Service (GSS) is delighted to provide data users, especially the Metropolitan, Municipal and District Assemblies, with district-level analytical reports based on the 2010 PHC data to facilitate their planning and decision-making. The District Analytical Report for the Techiman Municipality one of the 216 district census reports aimed at making data available to planners and decision makers at the district level. In addition to presenting the district profile, the report discusses the social and economic dimensions of demographic variables and their implications for policy formulation, planning and interventions. The conclusions and recommendations drawn from the district report are expected to serve as a basis for improving the quality of life of Ghanaians through evidence- based decision-making, monitoring and evaluation of developmental goals and intervention programmes.

  • Agrarian Transformation in Ghana's Brong Ahafo Region
    Agrarian Transformation in Ghana’s Brong Ahafo Region: Drivers and Outcomes James Boafo BA (Hons), MPhil (Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology, Ghana) A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at The University of Queensland in 2019 School of Social Science ABSTRACT Food and agricultural systems in the global South have undergone recent and significant transformation. Such changes are driven by an array of actors, and alongside social, political and economic forces, including a renewed investment by global development actors following the global agri-food crisis in the mid-2000s. The global agri-food crisis, in particular, is associated with speculations in food and agriculture, alongside the introduction of new modernisation policies and programmes – including the Alliance for a Green Revolution in Africa. Such interventions are often couched as a response to the challenge of feeding the world’s growing population, estimated to reach nine billion by 2050. In Africa, an agricultural transformation is also closely tied to initiatives to modernise agriculture, including expanding export-led agricultural development. Turning to Ghana in particular, market-based and export-led agricultural development policies and narratives have expanded since at least the mid-2000s, incorporating new actors, and extending their local level impacts. During this period, dominant agricultural development narratives framed Ghana’s agrarian problems as largely technical and supply-side problems, which could be solved by increasing productivity as well as diversifying into production of export crops, thereby addressing poverty, food insecurity and global market access issues. In particular, the promotion of cashew nut production as export diversification has integrated farmers in the Brong Ahafo Region into the global commodity market.

O. Box NT 1, Kumasi, Ghana 2 School of Economic Sciences, North-West University Mafikeng Campus, Private Mail Bag X2046, Mmabatho 2745, South Africa Abstract This study explored the dietary taboos of the Bono people in four selected communities in the Techiman Municipality of Ghana. Arguments from the symbolist and materialist perspectives are presented in the paper within the framework of the Durkheimian theory of sacralization. Qualitative empirical data from 85 purposively sampled participants consisting of traditional chiefs, traditional priests, elderly residents and park officers in the Wildlife Division (Forestry Commission) of Ghana formed the basis of the study. Personal interviews, Focus Group Discussions and non-participant observation under the phenomenology research method were the means of data collection which were analysed thematically. The symbolist perspective of the study revealed the socio-cultural significance of the dietary taboos as markers of ethnic and place identities of the Bono people. The materialist perspective argued the ecological benefits of the dietary taboos in maintaining the buoyancy of the ecology and ensuring the conservation of fauna diversities in the region. The study concludes that dietary taboos hold high potentials as behavioural control mechanisms for regulating the attitudes of people towards the resources in the environment.

Silverman Professor Henry Wright © Anne M. Compton 2014 DEDICATION To Michael Church, for always believing in me ii ACKNOWLEDGMENTS Words cannot express my gratitude for the constant support and guidance of so many people that made this dissertation possible. My research interests have been continually evolving and growing since my first archaeological experiences at the University of New Mexico. Since then, I have been fortunate enough to take part in projects all over the world—from Ghana, India, Italy, Senegal, Michigan, and New Mexico. Each research project has contributed to my growth as an anthropological archaeologist. I am eternally grateful to have been surrounded by a rigorous intellectual environment at the University of Michigan in both the Anthropology and African Studies Departments. Without Dr. Raymond Silverman, this dissertation would not have been possible. He taught me what engaged scholarship means. Throughout the years, he has been a patient and enthusiastic advisor. He has a knack for giving the right advice and guidance at the precise moment it is needed. Ray introduced me to Techiman and patiently guided me through the social aspects of conducting research in sub-Saharan Africa. He graciously allowed me to build upon his networks and connections that he carefully maintained since his field seasons in Ghana in the 1980s.

ABSTRACT This work studies Christian-Muslim relations in Ghana with special reference to the role of traditional Akan culture. It identifies and examines religious and cultural practices of the Akan people of Ghana that continue to exert strong influence on the people in the wake of the upsurge of Christianity and Islam. These practices have not only succeeded in moulding and shaping both Christianity and Islam into unique entities as found in Ghana but also toning down the ancient rivalries that have existed between them. It is concluded that Christian-Muslim exchanges go beyond theological and historical discussions.

  • Asante Rule As a Factor in the Emergence of the Brong-Ahafo Region of Ghana
    Historical Research Letter www.iiste.org ISSN 2224-3178 (Paper) ISSN 2225-0964 (Online) Vol.39, 2017 Asante Rule as a Factor in the Emergence of the Brong-Ahafo Region of Ghana Kwame Adum-Kyeremeh, PhD Department of History, University of Ghana, PO box 12, Legon, Accra, Ghana The research is financed by Author (Sponsoring information) Abstract This paper is a study of the nature of Asante’s relations with states in the Bono part of the Bono Ahafo Region. The paper also examines the consequences of Asante rule on its vassal states. The study reveals that prior to the Asante invasion of the Bono states in 1712, Asante traders bought kola, livestock and pottery from settlements in Bono. The Asante invasion of 1712 notwithstanding, economic relations between the two increased. During the nineteenth century, Atebubu and Bonduku, Kintampo and Wankyi became important market centres visited on a regular basis by Asante traders. Politically however, Asante conquest of Bono soured relations between Asante and the Bono states as a result of the capture and often, the murder of Bono chiefs and their subjects; looting of gold resources of the states and the replacement of legitimate Bono rulers by persons without any claim to legitimacy. Asante rule resulted in the polarization of Bono society, between pro-Bono and pro-Asante states. These factions became antagonistic towards each other and fought each other on a number of occasions. Anti- Asante sentiment grew in intensity from the late nineteenth century. In pursuit of freedom and independence from Asante rule, the Bono identified with the Convention People’s Party (CPP) in the 1950s.
