Kwame Arhin

Prof. Kwame Arhin, also known as Nana Arhin Brempong, was a historian and politician in Ghana.

Arhin built his academic career at the University of Ghana, where he was an editor of the Legon Observer and had a long-standing association with the Institute of African Studies. In October 1988 Arhin, who by then had served as acting Director of the Institute of African Studies for a year, was officially appointed successor to Kwesi A. Dickson as Director of the Institute.[1] He served as Director of the Institute until the academic year 1997–8, when he was succeeded by George Hagan.

In the 1990s he served as a member of the Council of State and as Chairman of Ghana's National Commission on Culture.

He died on September 6, 2015.

gollark: You use C for those mostly.
gollark: It would probably have a microcontroller in it, and those typically run C.
gollark: There's probably some way to rewrite them as a bunch of equations, say, then solve those - you know the amount of X atom/ion on the left is equal to the amount on the right, and you know the amount on the left is equal to (moles of reactant A * 3 + moles of reactant B * 2) and so on.
gollark: I think what humans do is randomly guess a bit, tweak the numbers so they match better, then infer the rest when they reach something consistent.
gollark: Oh, hmm, I'm not really sure how you would do that. Did you try looking it up on the interwebs?
