Tours

George E. Ferguson Tomb

George E. Ferguson (1886-1897), a native of Anomabu in the now Central region of Ghana, was the first British official to reach Wa. He subsequently signed two trade treaties with the Wa Naa, the overlord of the Waala kingdom. His work led to the formal colonisation of the northern regions of Ghana. Ferguson was killed near Wa by the Mande warlord and slave raider Samory, a notorious slave raider. His mortal remains are buried in Wa.
