Kumawuhemaa Organizes her "Last Supper" and says Adieu!

Kumawuhemaa amazes a lot of Kumawuman citizens by way of being intransigent. She
has as a result of her unreasonable obstinacy reminiscent of that of the Biblical
Egyptian King Pharaoh earned the title "Queen Pharaoh" One will recall that
biblical history has it that King Pharaoh resisted God in diverse ways. God had
resolutely determined to liberate His people, the Israelites, from slavery from the
land of Egypt. Tried as God did, He was opposed by King Pharaoh until He struck
dead all the first born children of every Egyptian family. Pharaoh could not
understand that simple message "Let my people go" God at a point felt persuasion
had failed so He applied force.


Similarly, God has asked Kumawuhemaa to permit the true paramount royals of
Kumawuman - the Ananangyas/Odumases to repossess their Kumawu Koduah Stool but she
keeps resisting. The fact that her bizarre character, unpalatable royal history etc.
have been made known to the entire world means nothing to her. Kumawuhemaa having
been exposed by God and my research as not a true royal still doesn't bother any
bit. She feels assured that her wish will in the end prevail. We live to see.


She celebrated her birthday a few days ago. She invited many of her Ankaase royals,
some of the sub-queens and the few of the corrupt sub-chiefs that support her cause.
She said to the invited guests, "Aduanahene se me ye Fulani ni enti oregye na kondwa
na nso mmenfa ma no". Literally translated as, "Aduanahene (the Head of the
Kumawuman Aduana family) says I am a Fulani so he is retrieving his paramount throne
from me but I won't give it to him" Aduanahene has never said that but her own
history proves her so.


I am persuaded that the birthday party she threw was actually the celebration of her
farewell party from the throne. It is a similitude of Jesus' Last Supper. She will
celebrate no more parties of any sort on the throne any longer, so the God Almighty
says. She will disgracefully capitulate any moment from now same as Essumejahemaa,
her best friend, is going to fall from grace to grass today. That is the wages of
greediness, insolence and short-sightedness.


I wonder why non of the supposed Ankaase royals has until now not openly challenged
Kumawuhemaa, their family member but looking on agape, dripping at the mouth while
she drags them along a dangerous path into oblivion. Is it stupidity or wisdom, I
wish to know? Anyway, the Ankaases are paying the price for their utter wickedness
and visionless. They came, they forced their way into the Kumawuman paramountcy,
they imposed themselves on the Ananangyas/Odumases and they sought to exterminate
them. Their heinous trick worked but for a while. Now God is saying enough is enough
with the Ankaase royals. "Give the throne back to my people", God says. But will the
queen listen?


The queen has locked horns with God in superiority fight. Who is mightier and who
will win? We all live to see. The queen like King Pharaoh thinks she will win the
fight. But she should hold her breath until the Asanteman Council; the referees have
declared the winner. Anyway, I wish her a happy birthday. How old are you now, Nana
Hemaa?
