Everybody is complaining bitterly but very few dare speak the truth . We shall never move forward until the undeclared war against the Akans, discrimination of the majority and anti Akan propaganda hate agenda is resolved. One must fight fire with fire , war with war not kisses or playing ignorant to the reality . the northerners , ewes , Muslims and other traitors of the Akan interest are systematically destroying the future of the Akans . There is no democracy or govt of the people and by the people but the slow establishment of the caliphate of pepeni murderers using a system of corrupt govt that makes irrelevant all institutions of state in the form of a Saudi style monarchy of mahama and his brothers . Despite our huge potential and the fact that any true patriotic nationalist govt can definitely turn the economy around in less than 6 months , we are bogged down in this situation of undeclared war of the ayigbe and pepeni mafia who have hijacked all institutes of state . only a bloody revolution will set us free . everything we have predicted over the past few years has come to pass and there is more evil to come until we stand up accept that we are at war and must fight back. Even Obama now realizes this caliphate is a serious threat to mankind's peace and unity . All religions are from God but over time the devil ensures the good is interpreted by the wicked and used to cause harm , the righteous know religion is meant to ensure unity and goodwill amongst men not pain and suffering or discrimination. On one hand we have the mafia ndc killing our people's future and around the corner nana chooses as his closest allies northerners who will continue the agenda of hate , wait for the clarion call for freedom and spare none of these criminals in the political oligarchy of corruption and evil . JJ and his ayigbe criminals started this process and God will continue to punish us with hardships and pestilences if we do not stand up

Too many Ashantis living in the north, just that they don't agree to having Ashanti chiefs. As far as my father and my uncles told me, the Mamprusi chief of Accra was the representative of the northerners; he was given the power to enstool all chiefs from the north. His relation with the Ashantihene was very cordial and the Nayiri (the Mamprugu paramount chief) always visited Ashantehene from time to time. Has that tradition stopped? But my brother Kanjagas is it not better that a Mamprusi chief enstools you in Kumasi? What difference does it make? When the white man came to the north it was Mamprugu that ruled and it is not out of the woods that the capital of northern Ghana was at Gambaga before it was moved to Tamale. There a majority of our northern brothers who feel that they should not take to traditional routes at the same time they want to function in a chieftiacy hierarchy. That is why there are many chieftaincy troubles everywhere in the north. We must go back to the traditional roots and give proper ceremonies where it is due and the north will be very peaceful. I know but I am waiting for the "insults" to start reigning on me in the forum. But remember that Mamprusis always tell the truth and follow the tradition to the core-that is we don't have many chieftaincy disputes in Mamprugu.

Chieftaincy disputes are the roots of all problems in Ghana. I know calling for its abolition will not sit well with some people. But why should a Mamprusi sub-chief in Kumasi enskin a Builsa sub-chief, when there is nothing in common between the two tribes. I see no purpose these so-call chiefs serve anyway.

Check the facts, Builsa always elect their chiefs they just don't hand pick anybody to be a chief. That Karim who claims to be eskinned by the Mamprusi chief,his late father was elected. His late father contested with Mallam Yahya and his father won. The election took place in the Manhyia palace.
Even back north in Builsa they elect their chiefs.
Meanwhile no Ghanaian tribe will like an ex-convict to be their chief as Karim is. If Karim wants the chieftancy he can also contest for it, and if he is elected that is fine.

Yes, indeed the Builsa's are the only ethnic group in Ghana (and perhaps Africa) who democratically elect their chiefs. Those who witness the election of Azantillo II after the the death of the famous Azantillo I (hope I've spelled the name correct)would confirm this fact. Even if Karim were not an ex-convict he is trying to cause trouble by forcing the Builsa to return to the Stone Age.

Your history is half-baked. Yes the Nayiri used to be the stooge for British indirect rule in Northern Ghana just as some chiefs in southern Ghana also sold their souls to the Whiteman. However, check the records. The Builsas, (Kanjagas) were the first to rebel against the authority of the Nayire in as early as 1923. This was followed by the chief and people of Lawra in the Upper West Region in 1947. By 1957, all the ethnic groups that used to be subjugated by the Nayire had "gained their independence" Even Dagbon and Nanumba which are the traditional younger siblings of Nayire had gained their independence. In the 21st century this anachronism is still striving as a result of ignorance. Left to some of us chieftaincy will die a natural death because it is a paper tiger.

If you are a Builsa community in far away Kumasi you should learn to live in peace and settle your matters peacefully. This chieftaincy nonsense should and must stop. The Asantes don't shed blood to enstool their chiefs why should settlers go and disturb their peace. Just kick their bottoms and they will learn the lessons of peace.

Very wise statement. The idea of community chiefs in Kumasi or elsewhere is to ensure communality among the various groups but if this is where we will take the respect extended by the Otumfuo, I guess it is time for him to say he does not need other chiefs in his Kingdom. Who told Karim that Bulsas are still en-skinned by the Nayire(Nalerigu)? Not Even Dagbon. Only Tongo, Bongo, Kongo, Zuworingo and Kongo Paramountcy, all in the upper East, were not ceded power and are still under Nayire.

There is no much chieftiancy violence in these places you enumerated. Chietiancy is very important as we still thrive to homogenize-Until and Upto when we become one in the north chieftiancy will remain paramount in the north. Let us not be deceived by human rights and 'book view' of society and pretend that we dont have elders. Elders are a culmination of chieftiancy!

Whereas I dont know Karim, I know the present Mamprusi chief in Kumasi, Musah. His father was a great chief and all the northerners in Kumasi revered him because he was strict, impartial and trustful. Please if anyone finds Karim an ex-convict, why didnt you mention that before the enstoolment? Too bad it is late! Any attempt to destool will only create havoc. Please let us accept him patiently and for sure his reign will come to pass. wh should we northerners be fighting over chieftiancy matters in Kumasi. As for me these sub chiefs in big cities all around Ghana are just there to make money from the government; they dont actually care about their people! But Patience, prayers and good conduct will reward the Builsas in Kumasis. Builsas have always been peaceful, anyway!

The loomimg chieftaincy issue in the Builsa community in Kumasi should be quelled before it becomes a bigger problem. Such disputes have been the bane of communities, where these so-called sub-chiefs exploit their own people for their personal gains. I see no reason why a Builsa person living in Kumasi should owe allegiance to the sub-chief in that area. What happens if he doesn't? Will he ostracized from the community?

The title 'Chief' is being loosely used these days. Any group of people in a different tribal land is led or headed by a 'representative' of their native home chief. The institution and title of chieftaincy is losing it's glory, meaning and intended appeal since any group of even ten settlers in a different village call their leader a chief. It's time for you all real chiefs to stand up and stop these blood hungry impersonators bluffing around like some ordained leaders. Let's limit the fights by redefining these fake gun-hoo ceremonial tugs as mere Reps. of their home land chiefs and nothing more. The title "Chief" is a birth right, and not a for sale show and tell right.
There we go again with these primitive people who are never open to any understanding or make any attempts to solve problems. How can suck backwards people deserve free trucks?
