Today on That's My Opinion, Nana Ansah Kwao IV continues the discussion on the legacy of matrilineal inheritance which is widely practised by the Akans.
Why did the Akans choose the matrilineal system of inheritance and how can we carry on in this era of PNDC law 111?
Gone are the days of "wofa wo ho enti men nyε adwuma", in other words, the child inherits the mother's-line but not that of the father.
But how many people leave their mums to go and follow their fathers heritage after his death; That's if they do not come from the same town?
Join Nana Ansah Kwao IV at 2:05pm on Joy 99.7 FM and Myjoyonline.com and share your thoughts on this controversial topic. That's My Opinion is live on Joy FM every Thursday from 2:05pm.
