    The priest was making "frantic efforts to control the skies" The odwan is you, who sheepishly believe in this type of nkurasifuor nkwasisiasem. Prayer is just a request, but CAN ANY MAN CONTROL THE SKIES?

    The United states air force has "owned the skies" for many years now. Have you ever hear of haarp? Wake up and smell the tea of reality.

    Do you realize these guys are not Ashantis? Yet, the Ashantis are claiming ownership, like they did to Komfo anokye, kente(kete), onions, everyting.

    nkum, you simply don't understand the chemistry of the people constituting the Ashanti Kingdom. Be informed that the Kingdom stretches beyond Ashanti Region. Find out more about it for your edification
