Nana Akua Tiwaa II is the queen mother for the Ejura Divisional Council
The Queen mother for the Ejura Divisional Council, Nana Akua Tiwaa II, has applauded the Asantehene Otumfuo Osei Tutu II for including women in his 25th-anniversary celebration.
Nana Akua Tiwaa II has observed that the Asantehene has consistently fought for the welfare of women in the country through strategic policies and measures under his rule.
She said this when all queen mothers in the Asante Kingdom met at the Manhyia Palace to prepare local foods as part of Otumfuo Osei Tutu II's 25th-anniversary celebration.
The event was held on April 22, and it saw queen mothers from the various Asante paramountcies exhibit local cuisines at the Manhyia Palace.
Ranging from the renowned Fufu to lesser-known and ancient delicacies like “Akau” and “Mampong at3ky3," the queen mothers and their community members displayed local foods from the various traditional areas.
Nana Akua Tiwaa II, after preparing some local foods herself, called on the youth to patronize indigenous Ghanaian foods as she believes that such foods contain the needed nutrients for the general growth of humans.
