Islam is Cancer, it took my ancestors land Iran. They were given 4 choices, convert, pay Jizyah, die or leave. My ancestors left and took refuge in India.
The whole civilization , culture was destroyed. But no one is ready to talk about that.
Where ever this ideology goes, it just destroys people, their civilization and culture. Now they are doing the same in African countries.

That is what Asantehene claims, tacitly. Even if Hassan Ayariga is wrong, one thing is clear: the chiefs of the Volta Region have been able to outlaw galamsey on their lands. But the worshippers of Asantehene will tell anyone with ears that their "king" is superior to every chief in Ghana.

Home work:

1) If the Volta Region chiefs could outlaw galamsey but Asantehene claims that the power to do so rests with the government, in what sense isn't Asantehene INFERIOR to the chiefs of the Volta Region?

2) If Asantehene has the power to outlaw galamsey but claims the government should be the one to do it, in what sense is he not evil, when children are being born with deformities, people are developing kidney problems, people's farms are being destroyed, water bodies are being polluted?

No insults necessary. Just answer the questions

There is no need to answer your questions because you are comparing apples to oranges. Ayariga was referring to a Ghanaian monarch. He made no reference to chiefs from your shithole region, that appendage of Togo.

@Dungeon Master, it is pathetic that Ashantis and Ashantehene have taken permanent residence in your brain. You are asking people to not insult you and yet you refer to some people as worshippers of the Asantehene and describe Asantehene as inferior to your chiefs.

Nice try, but you didn't answer my questions.

In any case, let me try to respond to what you wrote: I won't claim to have the best vocabulary in the world--far from it--but I struggled to find the word to describe those who fail to see any fault in Asantehene, defending anything said about him. Within the past week or so, one prominent Ashanti described Asantehene as second to God, or something to that effect. Do you at least understand the impression being created? In fact, you exemplify perfectly what I called "worshippers" of Asantehene. It's funny enough that you assumed I'm not an Ashanti because I don't worship him. My friend, I am. I wish I could swear. It is people like you and people who think like you who are responsible for the sorry state of Ghana.

Where did I say Asantehene was inferior to the chiefs of the Volta Region. I asked in what sense was he not inferior...? In other words, I was asking a question. Get it?

Keep worshipping mortals. I won't, and it doesn't make me less of an Ashanti.

You are just a wasted sperm from a Lunatic father, there are galamsey across the whole Ghana except two regions, and for your warped mind, no Asante gets time to go your level of IQ, get lost PRAKO ba like you.

Compared that to today and you will see how useless our chief is.
If he is not an accomiplice why has he lokked on when Wumtumi is destroying the whole Asante vegetation with impunity?

Your obsession with Asantes is very clear in your emotive post. They person who claimed that Asantehene is more powerful than the President of the Republic Hassan Ayariga is not an Asante. He didn't make reference to Chiefs from other places on Ghana. So of all places where did Chiefs from Volta Region come in? Where are gold deposits in Volta Region located? Upon what basis do you attack Asantes? You describe Asantehene as their "king" and at the same time assert that after all that you have said it doesn't make you less of an "Ashanti" ; from where? You are another lowerlife trokosi Ayigbe who has been given the opportunity by Ayariga to vent your pent up hatred for Asantes. You are hate filled nonentity and therefore your views about your Asante superiors and benefactors are irrelevant. After all you are Togolese.

Let teach something about logic. Using "their king" doesn't me less of an Ashanti. That is like a Ghanaian saying Akuffo Addo isn't his or her president. What that means is Akuffo Addo doesn't represent what a Ghanaian stands for. The crooked Asantehene who sits by while rivers are polluted doesn't represent what I believe. Unlike you, I don't worship humans.

Akuffo addo don't deserve to be a president in this country. But because of Ghanaians who are soo stupid to vote for such a person to be come president.
Akuffo addo is a betrayal. He betrayed the Asantehene. Because of this galamsey Asantehene dismissed some chiefs from his areas. Akuffo addo as the president to get more involved in this galamsey he rather become the protector of the galamse owners. Because he is only thinking how to win the election for Bawumia to cover up all states money they've stolen
The people doing this galamse are all npp bigwigs.
Ayariga is more than right to say this that Asantehene is powerful that the president akuffo addo. Because akuffo addo makes himself I don't careleszy
All his mind is only on election because he doesn't want his party to lose more seats in the parliament.

This Hasan Ayariga wants to be the president of Ghana. He should study the constitution of Ghana.

This is only applicable to an NPP President. You can't say this when Kwame Nkrumah and JJ Rawlings were in power. NPP is an Ashanti party that's why they think the Kumasihene is more powerful than the NPP president.

The success or failure of the current Asantehene can lies in his ability to preserve the waters and the green environment he inherited.
It is during his reign that All the river bodies in Asante have been destroyed under his watch. Can we refer to him as the worst Asantehene as Akofu Addo has claimed the title of the worst government?
He should bow his head in shame.
