You can send the horse to the river side but you can't force it to drink water.God in the first place don't want to see the face of African leaders,so the prayer won't work.

As a custodian of our culture, Nana please, you know what moral decay is what measures could be taken to restore it.
In Eweland in ANLO, the dreaded 5th Lagoon where families sent their wayward and criminal kids to, took care of these things and I knew Asante was no different.
Please Nana, take God out of this and show tough love to these "spoilt kids" ruling us.

As long as we do have such leaders like like our present and past days Pastors, Bischops, Revrends, as well as President Mahama, Otumfour & Co. Ghana will never advance. Since when do prayers help? If prayers are to help African, we would be free long time from the white and foreign forcers. Today poverty has lead us and there are still unbelievable highly corrutpions at top of our society. Otumfour and Mahama are the first on the top list.
What do you expect? Only shame!!!

Otumfour is the most corrupt king in Ghana.Have you been able to account for all the taxes you collect in Kumasi alone from every house owner. Can you account for $5 million dollar house you purchased in South Africa where the money came from.Do you give accounts on all the royalties from gold mining companies in Ashanti Region? Have you been able to visit Canada where you are wanted?

The NDC party founded by the Head Honcho of modern day corruption in Ghana, Jerry John Jeremiah Rawlings, which is currently led by John Mahama and Amissah Arthur is irredeemably corrupt and they lack the cranial activity, vision, and ability to deliver on the development objectives of the country. Create, loot and share is their modus operandi and until Ghana votes NDC out in 2016, Ghana is going nowhere.

Asantehene's face even looks like a bribeman's face. You led a corrupt government to bribery. Now, you need prayers for them! Who are you Fooling? You call yourself Otumfuo you will stand before the real Otumfuo one day.

I'm sorry this is ill thought statement, Nana. God kindly gave us all those resource free for the benefit of every Ghana. If those dishonest and selfish politicans without vision kept stealing and misusing them why should we go on worrying God. They know what they're doing is not what they're voting in for but they still do it.

It was through the perfidy of the Presbyterian pastors that the late King Prempeh the first was kidnapped by the British. The presbyterian church is not the friend of Asantefuo, so Otumfuo should tread carefully with them. Stop relying on prayers and mobilise the human and material resources of Ashanti for development.

THIS CHIMP CALLED OSEI TUTU NEEDS PRAYERS HIMSELF. HE'S A DRUG DEALER, AND A DISGRACE TO HIS ANCESTORS AND THE ASHANTI PEOPLE.
EVERY THIEF HAS NO SENSE OF SHAME, AND THAT GOES WITH THIS ASANTEHENE.

Any corrupted person will tell you pray whiles he steal from you at the same time. There is time for prayer and there is time to put thinks into perspective. We as a country need to work hard, stop corruptions, and strengthen our judicial process. Since the judicial is so weak everybody including the people in position of interest are taken advantage of it. God help those who help them self, not by means of corruption.

Asantehene Osei Tutu in the 17th century used the spiritual energies of Okomfo Anokye to invoke the Golden Stool to forge the Asante Union. Today, Osei Tutu II needs another Okomfo Anokye in this 21st century. Keep praying.

CIVIL, Till I read all these postings. Wicked Truth, but forgive the man. They forced him into this position, and now the stool is dying a slow death, just like that of the GAS. There will never be a Great Strong and Undefeated King like KING TACKIE TAWIAH 1st, but now look at the Ga State absolute shambles. I forsee the future of the Ashanti kingship too. The Bigger they come...

OK So I was about to say, the Ashantihene is a PIMP, big time...During the Ashanti NPP rein, he pranced around the Globe like he owned and rules Ghana, he should have declined all those political statehood affairs, now he has lost his dignity, because every Ghanaian and the rest of the world knows why he was enjoying those glories...TRIBAL POLITICS.

These days, when he opens his mouth, houseflies enter it and rats exit. I personally feel sorry for the poor Kid Chief.

Why all these comment against Asante King? Its seems he's losing moral values and respect among His followers.
That is how God works. We pray that there will be a new God-fearing King.
