I doubt if Prempeh ll was the son of Prempeh l, since Ashantis don't ìnherit through their fathers. The two might be brothers rather. Please check your history well.

The colonization of Ashanti's was brutal. After their failed independence bid they begged the British to be the tool of disruption in our independence drive.

It is incompatible to be a Christian and Asantehene. Traditional religion inderpins whatever Asante tradition stands for including occupying the Golden stool. It has nothing to do with islam,it has nothing to do with christianity. It deals with worshiping Tweduampon Onyankopn through our dead ancestors. Any Asantehene who converts to islam or christianity must abdicate.

The sons of a chief or king, in Akan custom and tradition, does not succeed his father as the next chief/king. In Akan tradition and custom, it is the incumbent king’s nephew who succeeds him when he dies or is destooled. Nana Prempeh 2 was not the son of Prempeh 1 but was the nephew of the king. That was and is a verifiable FACT.

Nana Prempeh 2 was never an ordained priest. The writer should check his history books again before he gets confused with his submissions.

@AE .. the idiotic GhanaWeb journalist is actually being paid for churning out misinformation. What an idiot! Is he or her a Ghanaian or an alien from Mongolia paid by GhanaWeb to feed us with absolute tripe or what?

First:. the son or daughter of any Akan chief does not inherit the throne of his or her father.That is for nephews and nieces.A fact that ignorant journalist knows nothing about..

Second: Prempeh11 was not born with "Sir "appended to his name neither was he the son of Prempeh 1.

Third: These are the names of the kids of Prempeh 1. James Boakye, Lucy, Ernest, Robert, Alexandrina and Victoria..,[twins named after Queen Victoria] by Prempeh for educating him from stopping his dreadful human, sacrifices, Samuel, David and Fred.

Fourth: Prempeh 1 ruled from 1888 to 1896. He never ruled any 4ucking Kingdom from 1896 to1931.

The problem is: when we have ignorant farts such as (AE from GhanaWeb) a purveyor of falsehoods spewing out rubbish, , it makes one wonder what sort of history our future grand kids will be reading.

Lastly, AE, you are an absolute disgrace to journalism ,and we will use the strongest possible words to insult fools like you when you display your ignorance on GhanaWeb as a paid journalist

. AE, shame on you a billion times!

Ghanaweb is a disgraceful organization.
How can you publish such lousy story of falsehood when you could have done just small research?
This kind of false narratives and distortion of history can lead to conflict. And Ghanaweb must be charged for spreading falsehood.
This sad and very unfortunate.
What kind of journalism is this? You just get up see a picture in some archive and then you concoct a story. National Media Commission must act.
Just a little diligence would have shown you that Prempeh II was born in 1892 to Nana Akua Bakoma, daughter of Nana Yaa Akyaa, Queen-mother of Asante and to Okyeame Kwaku Owusu of Besease. He was christened Edward Prempeh Owusu and was the nephew of Prempeh I. He was educated at Kumase Methodist School from 1907-1915.

Shame on you Ghanaweb.
