I am disappointed in these lies. Please be consistent, you said she was 106, then you said she was 109 and then 111 years old. Stop lying just to make her special. If she was 111 years old, it means that she gave birth to the Asantehene when she was 53 years old. Was Ashantene her last child? STOP LYING.... STOP FOOLING THE WORLD. This woman was in her 90s and nothing else.

These kings sell lands with no spaces for schools, gardens, parks, waterways etc. what nonsense is that. This is a primitive practice that must be removed to the museums to allow us to manage our lands with its rivers in a productive manner.

All in the name of a king or a queen has died whiles other people's love ones that are dead are languishing in mutuaries and paying high cost of money. We the new generation must rise up against this useless
traditions. The land doesn't belong to anyone but God only and if they have been placed in authority, they must respect the people for they will give acount to the highest authority one day.
Oh! Africa when are we going to change our mentality and become better people like others . God have mercy and help us.

She is and never has she been the queen mother of the Ashanti and there is no kingdom as it was disbanded when the Ashanti hene was retuned from confinement and all the Ashanti chiefs signed an undertaking that there is no more Ashanti state .
Check your history ,she was Kumasi hene as and ohemaaa not queen mother of any kingdom
Stop making a fool of yourselves and keep that stupid cocaine dealer chief to your kumasi.
He can't be a king as by right he has no land even under his name.
Bantimaah and Adum are not his land but bantimaahene and Ankaasihene.
Stupid useless uneducated short people and for that reason the salaga people killed the lot when they got ride of the Ashantis there.
Cos they wanted to be taller so they got the zongo hausa tall handsome men to fuck their women and produce look alike and gave them land near the so called palace and protect their fake king.
Check your history stupid people.

It beats me why these outmoded customs and traditions are practiced in today's modern Ghana. Noise making, drumming and funerals have been banned throughout ashanti because of the queenmother's death. Does a non asante residing in those areas have to abide by this ban? The palace have to wait to officially announce the death after compiling enough heads for the funeral.
