Nana Obimpe, known in private life as Joseph Kwesi Yumpo Mbimadong (1922-2013) was an educationist, politician, academic, advocate and traditional ruler. This paper seeks to present the life story of Nana Obimpe and how local, national and global politics made him establish his own archives. Through his collections we are able to understand local processes and practises of chieftaincy, resistance and economic life.
