The main reason the Europeans introduced Western formal education in the Gold Coast was not to help the local people but their trade and promote their religion

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Here we just have a statement. There is no question at all.

If this is a true or false question, the answer is "True".

It is true that the main reason the Europeans introduced Western formal education in the Gold Coast was not to help the local people but their trade and promote their religion.

And generally, it was not only on the Gold Coast but in all the African territories. Let us say that the Gold Coast is located in the Gulf of Guinea, Africa.

For instance, after the Berlin Conference of 1884, European superpowers agreed on regulating the partition of the African Continent. We are talking about the time commonly known as the Scramble for Africa, from 1884 to approximately 1914.

Nations such as Germany, Great Britain, France, Portugal, and Spain, split and changed the frontiers of Africa, divided communities, and created new borders.

The intention was not to colonize in order to help the African natives or evangelized them. The true purpose of the colonization was an economic one. European nations were only interested to exploit the many raw materials and natural resources of Africa.
