Esther Afua Ocloo (d. 2002), a
former Ghanian entrepreneur and pioneer of micro-lending. (Wiki)
A more
remarkable feature still, in the very centre of the coastline of West
Africa, is that, in the languages and dialects of the Twi group, in Efe,
and in Ga, the week is a recognised division of time, and is divided
into seven days. Each day has a name, and they are made use of in
naming children according to the day on which they are born; and between
the day of the week and the personal name there is some etymological
connection. (The Languages of West Africa, Migeod, 1911).
