It was Italy.
Yeah. And they were European Colonisers, no?
Wonder if there are any offsprings in Seychelles left from the her exile days and Prempeh’s. Will be nice to investigate.
Interesting!
Wouldn’t that would be too much of a transplant? Wonder how many have taken up the offer. Doubt there’ll be any takers!
Fine work. Well done @BBCAfrica
There's a little addition to b made though.
#YaaAsantewa is the lady on the right side of #Asantehene #Prempeh.
The pic was taken after 1900.

So it means the picture was taken on the island?
Yes. After the #YaaAsantewaa war of 1900.
Does Ghana have a documentary or movie about this heroine Yaa Asantewaa? Don’t think so.. let’s wait for some other country to take up her story and make a doc or movie out of it. O Ghana!! smh 
"In 2001 a TV documentary ‘Yaa Asantewaa – The Exile of King Prempeh and the Heroism of An African Queen’ by Ivor Agyeman–Duah was released in Ghana."
Indeed she fought for Ghana
, especially the Ashanti Kingdom so Ashanti’s need to find a day to celebrate her #wcw
We have her in our hearts .. We celebrate her each and every minute ..
There's Winnie Mandela.
Hopefully you will also focus on the Congolese women who fought for the independence of the DRC
