Yaw, it seems the Ashantis don't actually know their true history. They are contributing to the uncertainties.

It is high time we the Guans from Akwap8m shame these stupid revisionists. First, these Ewes claim our son. Anokye, is not a Guan but an Ewe. And now, a Ga person is also joining the falsification fray.

Everyday, some write up or publication about a tribe challenging Ashanti and Akans. If this is not pure envy then it’s INFERIORITY COMPLEX on a massive scale. The funny thing is that nothing is told about how great Ashanti is or what marvelous achievements this particular tribe that fought the British to attain their unrivaled greatness in the history of Ghana and Africa. Today Ayigbe says Yaa Asantewaa was from Sogakope and tomorrow Ga claims they conjured Osei Tutu to be born. Meanwhile, Ewes can’t develop their villages and come to Accra to sleep in kiosks along the Tema Motorway. As for Ga, just go to Sraha, Akoto Lantey and Jamestown. As soon as it’s 7pm, they start fighting over sleeping space on the streets. Mini sane po n3? We are tired of Ewes and Ga Adangbe wanting to tear Ashanti apart with distorted bullshit of history.

Asantes are not ungrateful and gives credit where it’s due. Until the period of John Mahama and Nana Addo, there were no this kind of fabricated history about Asantes. But we remain Unperturbed, we are who we are. Komfo Anokye was a Guan from Awukugua, I doubt if our had even come in contact with Ewes during Osei Tutu’s time. Okomfo Anokye, Guan dehye3 and his friend Osei Tutu created Asantes, not any Ewe, and Tutu was a Guan shrine not Ewe shrine. Don’t be surprised to hear that Jesus Christ was an Ewe, bro.

These ashantis know how to twist true stories to false and false stories to true history, retold and retold, over and over. For all we know it was the Guans and Akwamus who were very fierce and all-conquering in those days. But ashantis quickly adopted and adapted the stories to suite their evil agenda. I have used DNA and molecular theory to disprove most of their bogus claims.

Hahaha interesting indeed, another buffoon idiot primitive half baked primitive Okyere. Because your forefathers were evil agenda people they couldn't advice Okomfo Anokye to come to Akyem to unite you people which was a just stone throw near Awukugua to stay with you guys and unite your people. The same way the Akwamu people couldn't also advice Okomfo Anokye to come to them likewise the Ewes and Ga/adanbges couldn't advice Okomfo Anokye to come to them now all these tribes are barking like dogs in the media houses creating unnecessary noise to deceive Ghanaians due to the great Ashantis history. Very soon the Ewes would claim Jesus Christ was from one of their in keta. Kudos to the Ashantis for their lovely history.

NOT. The Ga are always seeking relevance by attaching to someone else!

In the words of famed Israeli Army General, General Moshe Dayan:

I add, When a Footballer misses a Penalty, he walks by himself. The one who scores is immediately mobbed by team mates.

We don't mind others clinging to us to seek relevance. But fabrications don't cut it.

Nana Gyamfia Manu, who gave birth to her son Osɛe Tutu, consulted a branch of the Tutu Shrine located near Kokofu. She never traveled to the main Tutu Deity (Tutu Shrine) located at Tutu in Okere Pon (Kyerepon) territory (Adukrom).

Please read the piece again: it was written to refute the nonsense being peddled about the origins of Opemsuo and Okomfo Anokye: At this rate, I am waiting for the Icelandics to claim Osei Tutu and Okomfo Anokye.

Gbeshie or whatever it is called, Osei TUTU was born and became the greatest Ashanti king ever known in Ghana’s history. Let’s all move on as one people with the determination to make Ghana a country to be proud of.

Truth be told ---in fact the history of Ghana will prove to show how related we as one people--are
We came from other places on the Continent [AFRICA]
We arrived from direct direction to meet the original inhabitants [ABORIGINES] of the land --These people are the GUANS--SOME IN THE North --West , East [Nzemas--Senya-Breku--Larteh --Kyerepons --Wurawura Nkonyam --etc--
The Ga s--even, you will notice have many Akan --appellations---The Denkyiras for instance were at one time lords over the Ashantis--until Asantehene Osei Tutu 1--with the help of Okomfo Anokye united the various Asante enclaves to dominate the Denkyiras --Asante hence had an expansion agenda thus their wars to gain more territory. In fact they never conquered most of the costal States--wisely the Coastal States enjoyed the protection of the Europeans cos of Trade pact , EG the Asante never defeated the GAS or KROBOS OR EWES or AKYEMS---About time for our history experts to come out with the true history of our ROOTS --the link of all our Ghanaian Tribes
