@Hunter
The Gas placed a ban on noise making, not closing of scools and businesses like banks, etc and these hypocrites were all over the place. This is what leads to insults and hatred. You can't use one hand to say no and ...

@fake Yaa Asantewaa, you can’t compare the gas homowos kingship to the mighty Asantehemaa, I beg shift
A very silly directive from this Ashanti sector of Ghana. What is the economic loss to the city? Calculate that and tell Ghanaians if it’s worth it. You send your child to US to learn and then tell students in your city not ...

this is totally insane. Do we have a separate Republic in Ghana. Total backwardness which must be condemned by all .
This order to close businesses, including banks must be challenged in court. The authority to declare emergencies, public holidays, and sectional businesses lies with the Interior Minister in consultation with National Securi ...

*and shutter regional businesses, not sectional businesses*
Assuming this directive came from the Volta Regional House of Chiefs, Yaanom will flood this comments section with their insults and unprintable words.
TROKOSI FOOLS ALWAYS WANT TO BE RELEVANT BY ATTTACKNG
ALMIGHTY ASHANTES
This directive is totally unnecessary and nonsensical. Should the hospitals be also closed? What about Banks and Fuel Filling Stations? Let us try to become matured and civilized. Then, they should stupidly direct that the Fi ...

Will this happen in a CIVILIZED SOCIETIES ? NO WAY. SOME OF THE THINGS LIKE THIS SET US APART FROM THE CIVILIZED SOCIETIES.
The problem is other chiefs in different regions of the country are taking note. These same toilet munching monkeys started calling their chief a king and now every chief in the country is referred to as a king as well
ASANTEHENE IS NEVER A KING!!! HE IS OTUMFUO! GREATER THAN ALL SOS CALLED KINGS.
Steer away from such nonsense. The Asantehene doesn’t feed or clothe anybody in Ghana. Let all our Traditional Leaders please live civilized lives. Will they need Water, electricity, Ambulance Services during this time? A b ...

And when the GAs place a band on drumming and noise making in Accra for the HOMOWO festival Akan people complain. Why should to shut business because funeral of an old lady? Backward people
ACCRA IS THE CAPITAL OF GHANA AND KUMASI IS NOT. THAT IS THE PRICE THEY PAY FOR BEING THE CAPITAL. GOVERNMENT BUSINESS AND SIT OF GOVERNMENT CANNOT STOP. GET IT ONCE AND FOR ALL.
Stupidity at it’s best.,Are there no government agencies and officials in that barbaric bush
GO TO KEJETIA AND ASK. OR YOU ARE NOT A MAN BORN OF A WOMAN???
THAT BARBARIC BUSH PROVIDES THE RESOURCES YOU AND YOUR KINSMEN DEPEND ON TO SURVIVE. ODWAN
Bush is not barbaric. Bush is environmentally good. The air is clean, hygienic and healthy.
Go to Burma Camp and tell them mot to make noise.
is Ghana a kingdom? or Asante is a reservation? we must stop all this nonsense before it swallows us all
What sort of nonsense is this?
Me my biggest issue with this directive is the fact, that there is an ongoing WASSCE and on Thursday there are papers to be written. They have Physics Practicals, Clothing and Textiles, so what happens to DAY STUDENTS and INV ...

@GH8
This is not a problem at all. Let them choose one. The funeral or their exams, which will in the long run, define their future. They shouldn't postpone the exams, not at all.

OMG! Where in the universe will this be conceived. SHITHOLE country indeed. What purpose will this serve? Oh King Solomon.
This is very bad precedent.
So, any chief in Ghana can order schools, banks and businesses to close because of a funeral in his town?
Whst sort of government are we practicing? Traditional and tribal government or con ...

She is dead, so everyone else is ordered to put their lives on hold, right?!. Nkwaseasɛm wɔ Ghana, too much!!
What nonsense is that ?
Waa that the case during Otumfour Opoku Ware's funeral in 1999?
This is useless comment,to close schools, Banks, Markets for what? What authority did Kweku Dua AKA Osei Tutu 11 have to say we should close these things.Is useless statement.The government should put a stop to that order. W ...

Only the GES can close schools in Ghana. Manhyia can only request GES to close the schools. It cannot order the closure of schools itself.
I am an ardent proponent of cultural preservation and more.
But this is crossing the line. All well meaning Ghanaians including Ashantis must condemn this obnoxious arbitrariness.
Otumfour must review this order.
Maintain ...

This is where the competency of Mahama is brought to question again. This can never happen under Rawlings. Allowing things like this to occur is what took the NDC to opposition in the first place. Even Akufo Addo will not cou ...

Can you imagine?
Ghana is a secular state.
Just imagine if chiefs had a hand in running the country as they've always cried for, the country would be faced with these directives and orders that make no sense in today's Ghana. It would make sense to ask for the closure ...

Funerals should not be disorganising of state affairs.Well,Ashanti/Akyem funerals are money generating moments for their paramount chiefs.Its good tradition is ever in state of evaporation
May i know what the Minister of Interior, the Mational Security boss, and Jubilee House say tp this rubbish.
Has the Asantehene any right to issue such directive?
And no one in Ghana is challenging it?
