“On 26th December, the ‘Portugalise Handelaer’, a slave ship, arrived, which I have dispatched today with 525 pieces of slaves, 368 men and 139 women. As before, there is great abundance of slaves here, but there is also great famine, with the result that I have not been able to supply this ship with as much millet as I would have desired. The negroes, who as I have mentioned earlier, are here not at all polite, have torn up the noble company’s flag, on the day that the ship ‘Cromantyn’ left. On many occasions it is custom, and one is even obliged, to have such a flag on the beach for the reputation of the noble company.
This event is therefore a serious matter, and the English and the French at Fida were quite happy about it, as they concluded, as can be understood, that our presence in this country is no longer brooked . . .
I have therefore, on my own costs, prosecuted and eradicated the flag violator on behalf of H.E. the General, and sent him to Elmina per canoe; the General has publicly sentenced him [to death] and decapitated him and has sent the severed head on board the company ship ‘Goude Tyger’, hither. As an example of the punishment for such wantonness I have put it on top of a pole here at the lodge . . .”

The reparationists in the Caribbean had to be reminded recently, because their greed is so famous, that the only way that reparations can be paid to descendants of slaves by UK and Europe is if they continue to steal resources from Africa to pay that debt. They were so shocked those reparationists with their ulterior motives, those who genuinely did not know, they have’nt recovered from that jarring revelation yet, since they were also reminded that continuing to make elaborate claims and demands is inciting UK/Europe to rob the continent, but then there’s no guarantee they will pay anything, they might just use the opportunity to exterminate all African descendants in the West, if they believe they can get away with it and keep what they steal, they do have a track record of genocidal behavior. Reparations will have to come in other forms. The best payment yet may to get all colonizers off the Continent permanently, perpetually bar them from anywhere near Africa, through eternity, let’s see how well they survive after that throw down..
