    Some of the facts in this article don’t add up. I don’t see how the son of the Asantehene would become his successor in the Asante culture. Please check your facts.

    The Writer of this piece of History is a complete “JOKE”. Full of “absolute AKAN historical nonsense “ and Rubbish.

    I doubt if Prempeh ll was the son of Prempeh l, since Ashantis don't ìnherit through their fathers. The two might be brothers rather. Please check your history well.

    Nana Prempeh 2 was never an ordained priest. The writer should check his history books again before he gets confused with his submissions.
