Low vision doesn’t mean no vision. With expert care and assistive tools, optometrists help low vision patients maximize their remaining vision.

JB Danquah’s 60th Memorial Service comes off in Kyebi tomorrow.
May His Soul Rest in Peace.

I bring you a case of crime, pain, scandal and historic disgrace of the Kyebi palace in the murder case in the ‘Okyehene’s’ palace (as it is now known) and Dr JB Danquah and Edward Akuffo Addo’s spirited but failed attempt to defend and protect the identities and crime of their murderous kinsmen and in the lead up to the formation of the UGCC to seek political revenge in a criminal matter.

The year was 28th February 1944.
