He was a very special man who cared immensely for his family. He was one of the big six, a group of men in Ghana that helped to pioneer Ghana's independence. There is a bridge in Ghana named after him and his face is also on the money in Ghana. He was given a state burial when he passed away and because of how much he did for his country his family name Adjei is very well known and respected.
