| Abstract: | The source of material for this study is Ghana's 1960 Census of Population. In 1960, the total population of Ghana included 12 percent immigrants. Of this group, only 2 percent were of western or Asian origin; the rest were from other African countries. In this article, the author wishes to provide some statistical indices to show the extent of likeness between the indigenous population of Ghana and African 'immigrants'. The assumption is that the closer the statistics relating to 'immigrants' are to the indigenous population, the greater the degree of assimilation and absorption. The indigenous population forms the main reference group of the immigrants. Tables. |
