Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106- 1346 ABSTRACT During the first quarter of the eighteenth century and long after, Bosome led a politically unexciting life. In contrast, the other two Akyera states, Abuakwa and Kotoku, pursued an aggressive foreign policy and tightly guarded their independence against hostile neighbours. Between 1730 and 17^2 they acquired imperial domination over the eastern half of the Gold Coast west of the Volta. In 17^> however, Kotoku succumbed to Asante authority. Abuakwa resisted Asante but yielded to that power in 1783* The fall of the Akyem empire increased the area of Asante domination. The Asante yoke proved unbearable; consequently between 1810 and 1831 the Akyem states, as members of an Afro-European alliance, fought a successful war of independence against that power. -
Ashanti Region
REGIONAL ANALYTICAL REPORT ASHANTI REGION Ghana Statistical Service June, 2013 Copyright © 2013 Ghana Statistical Service Prepared by: Victor K. Nyanteng Peter Takyi Peprah Lawford Boateng Acheamfuor Emmanuel Nii Okang Tawiah Edited by: Samuel K. Gaisie Chief Editor: Nii Bentsi-Enchill ii PREFACE AND ACKNOWLEDGEMENT There cannot be any meaningful developmental activity 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, and socio-economic characteristics are all important in development planning. The Kilimanjaro Programme of Action on Population adopted by African countries in 1984 stressed the need for population to be considered as a key factor in the formulation of development strategies and plans. A population census is the most important source of data on the population in a country. It provides information on the size, composition, growth and distribution of the 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 resources, government services and the allocation of government funds among various regions and districts for education, health and other social services. The Ghana Statistical Service (GSS) is delighted to provide data users with an analytical report on the 2010 PHC at the regional level to facilitate planning and decision-making. This follows the publication of the National Analytical Report in May, 2013 which contained information on the 2010 PHC at the national level with regional comparisons. Conclusions and recommendations from these reports are expected to serve as a basis for improving the quality of life of Ghanaians through evidence-based policy formulation, planning, monitoring and evaluation of developmental goals and intervention programs. -

Evaluation of the Effectiveness of Traffic Calming Measures on Vehicle Speeds and Pedestrian Injury Severity in Ghana
HHS Public Access Author manuscript Author ManuscriptAuthor Manuscript Author Traffic Inj Manuscript Author Prev. Author Manuscript Author manuscript; available in PMC 2020 April 29. Published in final edited form as: Traffic Inj Prev. 2019 ; 20(3): 336–342. doi:10.1080/15389588.2019.1581925. Evaluation of the effectiveness of traffic calming measures on vehicle speeds and pedestrian injury severity in Ghana. James Damsere-Derrya, Beth E. Ebelb, Charles N. Mockb, Francis Afukaara, Peter Donkorc, Thomas Ojo Kalowoled aCSIR-Building & Road Research Institute, UPO Box 40, Kumasi, Ghana bHarborview Injury Prevention & Research Center, University of Washington, Seattle, USA cDepartment of Surgery, Kwame Nkrumah University of Science & Technology, Kumasi, Ghana dDepartment of Geography and Urban Studies, University of Cape Coast Abstract Objectives: Each year, pedestrian injuries constitute over 40% of all road casualty deaths and up to 60% of all urban road casualty deaths in Ghana. This is as a result of the overwhelming dependence on walking as a mode of transport in an environment where there is high vehicular speeds, and inadequate pedestrian facilities. The objectives of this research were to establish (1) the impact of traffic calming measures on vehicle speeds and (2) the association between traffic calming measures and pedestrians’ injury severity in built-up areas in Ghana. Method: Vehicle speeds were unobtrusively measured in 38 selected settlements comprising 19 “with” and 19 “without” traffic calming schemes. The study design used in this research was a matched case-control. A regression analysis compared case and control casualties using a conditional logistic regression. Results: Generally, the mean vehicle speeds and the proportion of vehicles exceeding the 50 km/ hour speed limit were significantly lower in settlements which have traffic calming measures compared with towns without any traffic calming measures.
