See page 364 of The Sickle Cell Disease Patient (Reference 161) where I said: "A study of the dead man’s family showed that in addition to the two ‘SS’ children and the ‘AS’ widow, there were ‘AC’, ‘AS’, and ‘SC’ children, all of whom were asymptomatic so had not been referred to the Sickle Cell Clinic. This family study, done only after Dr Watson-William’s helpful letter, effectively phenotyped the dead man as ‘SC’, ie he was not a Sickle Cell Trait anaesthetic death. It was wrong of Dr Konotey-Ahulu (1969d) to have based his general comments on the assumption that a healthy professional African with no symptoms, with a normal haemoglobin level, and who had Sickle Cell Anaemia (‘SS’) children, could only have been Sickle Cell Trait (‘AS’). Dr Konotey-Ahulu should have known that a healthy, robust, adult Ghanaian man with eye problems severe enough for surgery had a high probability of being ‘SC’, seeing that 1% of all children born in Ghana are ‘SC’”. He said further: "Oduro and Searle (1972) have given general anaesthesia to 479 sicklers in Ghana over a period of 2 years, and have amply demonstrated the safety of general anaesthesia for patients with sickle cell states” [Oduro KA and Searle JF.

During a tour of 16 sub-Saharan African countries to acquaint myself with AIDS on the continent I ended up in Ghana holding discussions with a traditional chief who was quite aware of the chief cause of AIDS in his area. When told about a vaccine for AIDS this chief gaped with incredulity, and asked: ‘You mean they are going to prick us with needles so we can do what we like?’"]

I was even more surprised that Aggrey of Africa was not mentioned at all, which made me agree totally with your comment (NA, August/Sept) that in certain respects ‘the results are disappointing’. I would like to make two pleas. First, that my name be replaced by that of Dr James E K Aggrey, and secondly, that you allow me to write an article for a subsequent issue of New African which could not only help your readers worldwide realize why that great man was called ‘Aggrey of Africa’, but also make those who voted for me forgive my suggestion that I be replaced by somebody else.

Ruby Martin-Peprah and George Bedu-Addo of Komfo-Anokye Teaching Hospital and Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology, with collaboration of Imelda Bates (Liverpool School of Tropical Medicine) and Dominic Kwiatkowski of the Welcome Trust Centre for Human Genetics in Oxford have an impressive report on large tummy resulting from chronic malaria in Ghana”. 

239Konotey-Ahulu FID. Malaria again. Ghanaian Times January 14 2006, page 6. "Malaria is such a huge problem that to develop just one article to it does not do it justice. Last week we looked at the research that Ghanaians have been doing, and the fact that we need to get the benefits of such research. .. The malarial menace can be tackled at as many as six levels, plus a combination of all six: 1. Personal … 2. Family … 3. Community Level …4. Town Council 5. National … 6. International …I am not finished with Malaria. We shall come back to it …”.

240Konotey-Ahulu FID. Epidemiology of Malaria (1) Ghanaian Times January 21 2006, page 6. "This word, epidemiology, is a big word pregnant with meaning, That is to say, it means a lot …The word itself means the study of epidemics. An epidemic is the rapid spread through the community of a disease….Whether you are a herbalist, doctor, nurse, a mother, student, or visitor, you will find that the best way to understand epidemiology of any disease is to (deliberately) ask, and find answers to, the following seven broad questions with respect to the disease: (1) What? (2) Who? (3) When? (4) Where? (5) Which? (6) How? (7) Why?  ….(1) What is Malaria? ANSWER: Malaria is a very common tropical fever, so common that not many people respect it. That is why it is a dangerous enemy. If you do not respect an enemy, it will destroy you. What brings it about? The mosquito brings malaria, especially the type of mosquito called Anopheles. Kill the mosquito, and destroy the breeding places around homes, and malaria will disappear, as it has done in Singapore. …Who gets malaria? Anybody can get malaria, but children are the most vulnerable. …These articles are written so that we may educate ourselves, and take some Personal Action: (1) Kill mosquitoes and destroy breeding places (2) Protect yourself and your children against mosquitoes (3) Tell relatives visiting home from a long sojourn We …shall continue with more questions on malaria.”

241Konotey-Ahulu FID. Epidemiology of Malaria (2) Ghanaian Times January 28 2006, page 6. "When is malaria more prevalent in Ghana? ANSWER: In the rainy seasons, and soon after, but no month is exempt, as standing pools of water can be found here and there for mosquitoes to breed in, …Where does one get malaria? ANSWER: One can get malaria anywhere in the world, but especially in the tropics….A good doctor always asks ‘Where have you been?’ & ‘Where are you going to travel to?’ … A hospital with no insect proof wards in the tropics is a disgrace. Donor countries keen to AID Ghana could help us in this regard, …”

242Konotey-Ahulu FID. Epidemiology of Malaria (3) Ghanaian Times February 4 2006, page 6. When Big Men Show The Way. "At 5 am last Saturday, the siren rang. At 6 am, some Big Men assembled themselves to join residents in initiating the clean up of Accra. They were, to name a few, the Vice President of the Republic of Ghana Alhaji Aliu Mahama, the Minister of Health Major Courage Quashigah, the Metropolitan Chief Executive Mr Stanley Nii-Adjiri Blankson, Mr Sheikh I C Quaye of the Ministry of Lands, Forestry and Mines, and the Director General of the Ghana Health Services Professor Agyeman-Badu Akosa…Let the message ring far and wide: ‘KEEP GHANA CLEAN AND KILL THE MOSQUITOES!’ …Then those who queue up to give us AID to control malaria should be told that our first priority is a proper drainage system for our cities, towns, and villages. We need to negotiate with them on the basis of what we think are our priorities, and not what they think we need. Anti-malarial tablets are fine, but they are NOT our first of many priorities. …” 

243Konotey-Ahulu FID. Epidemiology of Malaria (4): The How? And Which? Questions. Ghanaian Times February 11 2006, page 6. "How does the mosquito produce malaria? ANSWER: Through her bite! I say ‘her’ to remind us that it is only the female mosquito (Anopheles) that transfers the parasite, which causes the trouble. .. Which is the best way to treat malaria? … "

244Konotey-Ahulu FID. Epidemiology of Malaria (5) The Why? Question. Ghanaian Times February 18 2006, page 6. "Why is malaria still such a problem in Ghana when tropical countries like Singapore and Trinidad have managed to control it? ANSWER: At least one reason is because we abandoned the discipline of the colonial days, and those countries continued to enforce that discipline. ,,I have time for just another reason why drugs given in Ghana may not work: Corruption! …”

To say ‘very well done’ and ‘congratulations’ does not even seem adequate. Interestingly, only a handful of the writers in the British press came close to recognizing that Obama is a phenomenon, though Lord William Rees-Mogg, former Editor of The Times had, a good nine months ago, placed Obama in the same class as Abraham Lincoln, J. F. Kennedy, and Martin Luther King. "Of course, New African’s own Cameron Duodu and Ayi Kwei Armah had, in their columns, recognized Obama’s potential long before any of the others did. For my part, with my enormous interest in history, placing that subject above even medical science, I make bold to say this: It is not at all hyperbolic of me to prognosticate that, God preserving him, President Obama will one day find himself the recipient of two Nobel Prizes, one for literature and the other for peace.”  New African December 2008 (No 479), pages 22–23.

A Response to The Greatest Show On Earth: the evidence for evolution  [Back Cover of Sarfati’s book: "I lost my Evolution Faith when being taught by London University’s Professor J. Z. Young, FRS, arguably the greatest Darwinian evolutionist of the 20th Century. I have since been waiting for a 21st Century genius to prove that the Darwinian Evolution Emperor has no clothes. Jonathan Sarfati is that genius as you can see from this his latest masterpiece. With an astonishing array of scientific references, Sarfati has demonstrated that he is far and away the better debater than Richard Dawkins...Read it, and re-read it!” Dr F I D Konotey-Ahulu (a world authority on sickle cell anemia), Kwegyir Aggrey Distinguished Professor of Human Genetics, University of Cape Coast, Ghana, and Former Consultant Physician Genetic Counsellor, Cromwell Hospital, London]
