@nalcity_hood_trends: An image from the 1960s of Naa Sheriga with Ghana's founding father Kwame Nkruma Sheriga reigned over the traditional kingdom of Mamprugu from 1947-1966. During that time he saw Ghana gain its independence from the British. He is a significant figure to us because he provided that land to the Foreign Mission Board on which they built the Baptist Medical Centre, where we live and work today. In 1961, Queen Elizabeth Il of England made a visit to several independent West African nations like Ghana, Liberia and Sierra Leone. She made a stop in Tamale where a durbar was held in her honor. Naa Sheriga and his court were in attendance and the British news reporters caught some brief images of him.
