Veteran Ghanaian broadcaster, Kwasi Kyei Darwkah who is widely known as KKD has claimed any African with an English name is mentally enslaved.
The renowned broadcaster made this known in a recent interview he had on Zylofon FM where he said;
“Are our names so evil? Are they so bad that because you want to go to church, somebody has to change your name? I don’t understand it. So I ins isted on using Kwasi Kyei Darwkah to make a statement that the first name is not English, the middle name is not English and the last names certainly not English.
Emancipate yourself from mental slavery. None but ourselves can free our minds.
Think of your ancestors who were whipped on the back and forced to accept another man’s names. Why then in freedom do I still want to fall into that trap and call myself by another man’s name. Whatever they do elsewhere, we can do same here but we don’t have to be like them because we are we and they are they.”
