Concept:Ghanaian history teaches several theories about where the Akan came from. The most widely taught one is that they migrated south from the ancient (Old) Ghana Empire in the Western Sudan.
Solution:The Old Ghana Empire was in the area of present-day southern Mauritania and western Mali.
After the empire declined (about the 11th century), groups moved south and settled in the forest zone.
These groups became the Akan peoples of present-day Ghana and Côte d'Ivoire, and modern Ghana took its name from that empire.
South-Western Nigeria is linked with the Yoruba, and the East of Lake Chad origin is linked with other groups, not the usual Akan account.
So, by the main theory, the Akans migrated from the Old Ghana Empire.
