Yepoka Yeebo: Anansi’s Gold

Wicked Words - A True Crime Talk Show with Kate Winkler Dawson

About this episode

The popular former president of Ghana was once accused of hiding gold from the West African country’s government. But it turns out that he was targeted by an audacious con artist who pulled off one of the 20th century's longest running and most spectacular frauds. Author Yepoka Yeebo tells me the story in her book: Anansi's Gold.
