He was also the Deputy Director of the Achimota College. In the following sentence we can see his vision regarding the education of women: “The surest way to keep people down is to educate the men and neglect the women. If you educate a man, you simply educate an individual, but if you educate a woman, you educate a whole nation” James Emman Kwegyir Aggrey Many Africans consider him one of the fathers of the new African educational system. EENI endorses this principle, which is why one of our priorities is to facilitate the access to higher education for the African women (EENI Mission). The following sentence of James Emman Kwegyir Aggrey is a personal positioning to the colonial powers, very daring in full colonial era: “Africa should be civilised not westernised” James Emman Kwegyir Aggrey
