1) Through cross refrencing I've found that Akan culture is identical to ancient Egyptian culture. For example, the Akan have matrilineal traditions. Another being the worship of Asaase Yaa (Isis) and Osoro (Osirus).
2) King Darkwah's linguistic expertise is undeniable. He says the first king to unite Egypt, "Menes", indigenous name is "Omane" and that is a Kwahu name. Another example is his assertion that the ancient city "Memphis" is really called "Mamfe" and is even a current Akuapem city.
3) When we discuss ancient Egyptians we talk as if they're extinct. True there are descendants of the ancient Egyptians still in Upper Egypt, the Horn of Africa and other East African areas but who can say the kingship is lost? Who can say the descendants of the ancient Egyptians are only concentrated in these areas?
4) I know a young guy who is very much into Egyptology. He's part Egyptian himself. I beat him in the head with my findings for a long time and he admits that the Akan (and other W. African groups like the Yoruba) may have very well been in Egypt during the Old Kingdom. That would explain the linguistic and cultural similarities.
5) I can't recall anytime in history where a African king writes a book discussing ancient secrets of his people. In his book he even has a picture of Akan furniture (Asesedwa) and this stool has the same exact design Egyptians had 4,000 years ago.
