Serwah Akoto Coker

I remember the day when we heard that Mr. Kofi Annan was to become the U.N. Secretary General. I was with my father Baffour Osei-Akoto, Senior Linguist to the Asantehene, Nana Osei Tutu II. My father incidentally is regarded by the U.N. Sectretary General as his father due to the very close relationship that existed between him and Kofi Annan’s father. Mr. Annan had visited father in Kumasi a few week’s before his august appointment where I was priviledged to shake hands and speak with this gentle and quiet spoken man, who sits astride the world as a Colossus.
