Most Ghanaians take any Akan speaking person or any Akan name bearer as Asante hence most non Akans see Asantes as tribalistic or as bad people. Kumasi is the only city in Ghana which have almost every tribe and their suburb with their chiefs. Angola ga, Mosi Zongo, Fante new town, Nzema etc. They even have Ibo chief and Yoruba chiefs in Kumasi. Yet Ghanaians see Asantes as tribalistic and primitive very funny. Agyeman badu has been bashing Otumfuor without any provocation ever since he became the president of Bono house of chiefs but Ghanaians see nothing wrong with it . He has even threaten to defy court orders to fight Asantes . I wonder why people like kwasi pratt have not see? Now Asantes are insulted on Facebook, Tiktok and utube from non Asantes yet still Asantes are tribalist! HATE US LOVE US WE ARE ASANTES AND THOSE WHO LIKE US ARE EVER WELCOME BUT WE SHALL NEVER FEAR OUR ENEMIES! ASANTE KOTOKO WU KUM APEM A APEM BEBA!

Oh Asanteni gyimi ni. You’ve villified, mocked, bullied and annihilated all tribes in Ghana. If something happens outside your input , it’s never good . That’s the thing about you people.

Dormaahene will always respond to the Asantehene as far as the Asantehene MENTIONS BONO in a denigrating manner. Asantehene started all this.

1. Before 2022, there is no single video where Dormaahene mentioned the name of Asantehene. Not even other chiefs in Ghana, whether for good or bad. Dormaahene was always concerned with the people of Dormaa.

2. Three years(3) ago, Asantehene sat in his palace to disrespect Techimanhene during Nkoranza Chieftaincy issue. He went ahead to THREATEN and to sack the good people of Nkoranza from their own land. Evidence of all these are available on Youtube (when you just key in Nkoranza dispute in the search bar and listen to the Asantehene's various speeches).

3. In that same year, he mentioned the name of Dormaahene's Uncle, Ɔsagyefo Agyemang Badu I (Dormaahene - 1948-1999) in a very disparaging name.

4. In that same year, Asantehene decided to unsurp his powers by interfering in the traditional jurisdiction of Dormaa Paramouncy, by attemping to annex one of their member states - BOMAA.

5. At Manhyia Palace, they always mention Dormaa, anytime someone goes there to swear to the Asantehene. Not only Dormaa, as for the people of Denkyira, asantes have no respect for their late Chief Odeefoɔ Nana Ntim Gyakari.

I can go on and on.

But when Dormaahene mentioned that there is no KING in Ghana, the highest form of Chieftaincy is Paramount Chief, majority of Asantes became attentive and started ATTACKING him.
Dormaahene also went further to tell the history of Dormaa to the people of Dormaa including their feats and setbacks. Asantes started to attack him again.

The Ɔsagyefo Ɔseadeɛyɔ, the Dormaahene, will NEVER STOP mentioning the Asantehene until the Asantehene cease to mention Bono as well as disrespect the noble Chiefs in Bono.
Just last week Asantehene sat in Manhyia and denigrated the noble chiefs of Bono. He called them derogatory names. GhanaWeb has refused to publish such.

We the people of Bono are ever ready for Asantehene and his dwarfs. DI WO LANE MU

You and your badu trumu have nothing to do with the truth. I have videos of your badu trumu insulting Otumfuor in 2018. Even when he promised to go to Esumeja in two weeks time and enstool his own chief is it not more than two years now?. And you are now lying that badu trumu started insulting Otumfuor since 2022. Point of correction the Bono region is not only occupied by Bono people. We have the Mo, people the Sampa and Seikwa Fantra people and even you Dormaa people are not Bono. You were kick out of Akwamu because of the same bad character you are displaying now and they nicknamed you people the ABORO people meaning very TREACHEROUS people,. It is the Europeans who couldn't notice the differences between abro and Bono and named all you Brong. The true Bonos are in Techiman, Wenchi, Tuabodom. One thing you dont know is the Techiman royals relate to the Manhyia royals so you aborofuo from booboo have no business in that. Your agyeman badu 1st was then a people teacher in Government boys school now Asem boys JSS When Otumfuo Agyeman Prempeh elevated him to paramountcy and recommended his gazettation to the colonial govt in 1948. Go and read your history your badu trumu want to change.

You’re a fool. I’m from Nkoranza.

No nkoranzahene has ever sworn before your Otumfour. Never. We install our own Nkoranza Manhene. He’s only related to Amakohene , that’s all. The same way Tepa Manhene is the traditional son of Dormaahene.

My grandfather was a kingmaker of Nkoranza under the late Nana Guakro Effah in the 80s.

Okatakyie Agyemang Kodom succeeded Nana Guakro Effah

Nana Kwame Baffoe IV (reigning) succeeded Okatakyie Agyemang Kodom.

We’re BONO IN NKORANZA . Only the royal family with his few men migrated to Nkoranza. Our towns were already under Bonohene Nana Kwakye Ameyaw (Bonohene). We’re not Asante. The same way Patasi is from Takyiman , and others are from Akyem and Denkyira in Ashanti.

Oh yes !
It is true that among all humans the one wearing the most nicely made and decorated and beautifully crafted hat draws the most eyes and all the attention.
Clearly, The Asante Kingdom`s traditional system designed just like Federalism where a President is chosen above all the States Governors, is purely unique in our Ghanaland and thereby envious among others.
The Asantehene is chosen above all the Paramount Chiefs in Asanteland and many are having sleepless nights and they are making all sorts of false and wild allegations against The Great People of Asanteland.

I tell you what, The Bronx, New York City, USA, has Asante Chief, wildly recognized across the vast New York City including New York City Mayor Eric Adams.
Your deep-seated fanciful hatred and bigotry towards Asantes will profit you all, the Asante-haters, nothing, so, change for the better.
Asantes have contributed immensely to educate and care for you all, but now, it is rather insults and disrespect and hatred the Asantes are receiving from all corners. But for the Asantes, how did our beloved Ghana gain the international accolade & recognition as The World`s Leading Cocoa Producer, to educate some of you?

Be careful you don`t die young, okay.
Asantes are so proud of themselves being rich or poor.
Asantes teach the World of their language, culture, and people wherever they travel to.
Fufu is now popular in New York City and elsewhere because of the Asantes who have done so well to popularize it even among the Hispanics, Jamaicans, etc., etc.
