What a long walk to the throne! As you read this book, you will discover the journey taken by Sir Clyde Rivers who was born in the United States of America to his throne in Kuotukwa Kingdom in Ghana where he was enthroned as HRH King Okogyeman Kobina Amissah I in 2022. As you turn over its pages, you will discover the long walk to slavery his ancestors took from the interior of Africa through the stormy waters of the Atlantic to the plantations in America. As you ponder on its paragraphs, you will reflect on how Sir Clyde Rivers' coming from America to Africa as a king was not controlled by human beings, but a mission ordained by God. As you read its sentences, you will encounter the people he has walked with on his 30-year journey to the throne.

The famous Theologian St. Augustine wrote, 'If you should ask me what the ways of God are, I would tell you that the first is humility, the second is humility, and the third is humility. Not that there are no other precepts to give, but if humility does not precede all that we do, our efforts are fruitless.' Read this book and experience HRH King Okogyeman Kobina Amissah I as a man of great humility who does not only teach with his words but also with his life. That is why he is recognised by Greatness University as one of the World's Greatest Civility Humanitarian.

Greatness University is the world's first canon-based institution dedicated to the study, formation, recognition, and preservation of greatness in human life. Founded by philosopher and educator Professor Patrick Businge, the university advances the emerging interdisciplinary field of Greatness Studies, exploring how greatness develops within individuals, is expressed in leadership, recognised in society, and preserved across generations. Unlike traditional universities that organise knowledge primarily through academic disciplines, Greatness University is structured around a canon of foundational works that examine the deeper principles of human dignity, leadership, honour, legacy, and civilisation. This canon provides an intellectual framework for studying greatness as a condition of character rather than simply achievement, fame, or influence. At the centre of this framework is the Canon of Eternal Greatness, a body of philosophical works exploring how individuals cultivate lives of purpose, responsibility, and service to humanity. Complementing this canon are several major book collections published through Greatness University Publishers, including The Grammar Series, which explores the underlying ""grammar"" of human development and civilisation, and The Greatness Series, which documents and celebrates individuals whose lives demonstrate leadership, compassion, and transformative impact. A central initiative of the university is the World Book of Greatness, a global documentation project preserving the stories of leaders, humanitarians, innovators, and cultural figures whose contributions uplift communities and inspire future generations. The institution also leads international recognition programmes such as the World Greatness Awards and the Eternal Greatness Designations, honouring individuals whose lives embody moral leadership, humanitarian service, and civilisational influence. Through its canonical scholarship, publications, and global initiatives, Greatness University seeks to cultivate a culture that recognises greatness as a human possibility rooted in character, service, and responsibility toward others. Its mission is simple yet profound: to teach greatness, recognise greatness, and preserve greatness for future generations.
