  I have no problem if you take on and insult indiviudal Asantes who indulge insulting Ewes here. But ad nauseam abuse? I say NO, NO to that! As I am an Anlo too, I don't want to be associated with that label.

  Yes, Rockson cannot do anything because the truth has been sacrificed. If the truth were to be accepted, Asantehene would have no case at all and that so-called installed chief would not have been installed. The truth will justify Rockson if we all alive by the grace of God to witness it.

  Barimah Asumadu Sakyi did nothing at Kumawu until he untimely death. All he did was messing with young girls. The queen mother was known fucking Asantehene so who give a crap? Bodomasehene is one of the fake people on earth. He is easily swept with money. Let me say here that he will never wear Ahenema again. Kumawuman had been struggling for water for decades but nothing is done on it. So who cares about chieftancy? I wish Ghanaian law will shut that shit out. Otumfuo is one of the bias and liars who does not give a shit about the Asantes. Have you all forgot the gold he lost in Europe? Give us a break

  Otumfuo, Nana Asantehene, please settle Bompata chieftaincy dispute case. As a result of this inaction on the part of your Asanteman Council, the town has been left without a queen mother for several years now, while the current illegitimate chief who resides in Accra hardly visits the town.
  
  No wonder there is no development whatsoever going on in this town. Without vision, the people really perish, especially the youth of this town. Is this what the Asanteman Council wishes for the same people they are supposed to serve?
  
  It is amazing how we fail to correct injustice in our society as leaders even if our failure to do so is detrimental to the very society we are expected to serve; yet we cry out loud for justice when the matter at hand adversely concerns us.
  
  It is equally amazing to observe that cases brought before the Asanteman Council can drag for over 40 years without any attempt to call for settlement. Such gross inefficiencies definitely call for urgent need to reform the way the Asanteman Council operates.
  
  In the name of all the Asantehenes Otumfuo Nana: Twum; Antwi, Kobia Amamfi, Oti Akenten, Obiri Yeboa, Osei Tutu Opemsoo, Opoku Ware Katakyie, Kusi Obuadum, Osei Kwadwo Okoawia, Osei Kwame Panyin, Opoku Fofie, Osei Tutu Kwame Asiba, Osei Yaw Akoto, Kwaku Dua I, Kofi Karikari, Mensa Bonsu, Kwaku Dua II, Prempeh I, Osei Tutu Agyeman Prempeh II, Opoku Ware II; who have ruled the Asante kingdom before your turn, Otumfuo Nana Osei Tutu II, please help and bring this case to a peaceful closure!

  Mahama is a thief, and the chief corrupt individual in Ghana. The worst president we've ever had, who has succeeded in assuaging the sufferings of the very people who put him there by the power of their thumbs. He deserves to die by firing squad, in the same manner and style that NDC founder, Trokosi goon and bastard, Ayigbe "Julo Kwakwe" JJ Rawlings subjected others to, when he usurped power in the 80's, and ruled for more than 20 years. From reports gathered yesterday, in which JJ was alleged to have said that it was a good thing that God took Prof Mills away, good riddance he said it was, it won't surprise me if conspired with Mahama and his cohorts to get rid of the man, he conspicuously showed hate for. If these evil men know what NEMESIS means, then they should get ready. It'll strike them like a hammer.

  Kurontihene is ill and therefore unable to participate in that destoolment proceedings. By Chieftaincy law and Custom, The Kurontihene, Queen Mother, Gyaase and Akwamuhene are the principal King Makers. Again they are the channel for destoolment. Asantehene by custom does not directly enstool or destool a chief without the participation of these wing chieves, Asantehene acts like Court of Appeal in the Judicial system. The Court of Appeal would refer the decided case back to the High Court for a retrial of the substantive case. That is what the Asantehene should do but not to give final determination of the case in his Palace.

  The Government of Ghana has created a whole Ministry of Chieftaincy Affairs whose operation is funded with tax payers money. However, it appears this Ministry has no relevance in the country. This Kumawu chieftaincy case could became another Burkina Faso if proper measures are not taken to resolve the case in accordance with chieftaincy laws of the nation.
  
  If the Ministry of Chieftaincy Affairs do not have the necessary powers or authority to intervene in such matters, then they should be abolished with immediate effect as there is no value for money for their existence.

  Libation pouring and animal sacrifices are an integral part of ceremonies when it comes to Chieftain.
  
  The rituals involves evoking the names of deities.
  
  God is saying in Hosea 8,4
  
  They set up kings without my consent; they choose princes without my approval. With their silver and gold they make idols for themselves to their own destruction.
  
  Please read the whole of Jeremiah 44, God detests libation pouring. 1st Corinth 10.20 warns that animal sacrifices are not unto God.
  
  All things should be founded on Christ, to the glory of God.
  
  Chiefs ought to seek counsel from true men of God, the need to revolutionize all of these ceremonies, in all godliness to the pleasing of God.

  Yes, what we need are development-oriented, selfless individuals to lead Kumawuman. If you have better alternative, pls. let us know.
  
  Ohemaa Serwaa Amponsaa took office in the midst of TURBULENCE from The Infamous YEATEASEM ERA. All their time (Barima Asumadu Sakyi II and Nana Serwaa Amponsaa) and resources were spent in the courthouse and on lawyers; thanks to your cronies - The nation wreckers who can think of nothing than MANSOTWEE; yet you guys turn around and ask for development.
