Asantehene Prempeh I was one of several elite figures who experienced exile by the British administration during this period of colonisation and colonial expansion. Whilst there are a number of scholarly works on Prempeh’s exile and return, most of these pre-date the turn of trans-national history, and the study of carceral geographies around the globe.

My research focuses on the underlying theme of impact and remaking of identities through the happenings while on exile in the Seychelles Island and repatriation to Asante as a mechanism through various archival material. This will also be pursued by giving particular attention to photography and its role in representing, projecting and legitimising colonial power.
