In Ghana, the name of the capital "Accra" was originated from the name of black ants "Nkranii" in Akan language (Twi), so the Akans call the capital Nkrai, but our colonial masters could not pronounce it well, and they called it Accra. People of Accra came to settle on the shores of Accra, due to their huge numbers, Ghanaians related them to Nkranii (black ant). Further history of the capital of Ghana.
