Kwasiakwa, Bosome, Kotoku, and New Juabeng are all squatter areas. Ohemaa Dokuaa gave rent land to New Juabeng, which Kwame Nkrumah cancelled. Akyem Tarkwa under Okyenhene gave land to Bosome and Kotoku, whose lands were from Bomfah to Dampong in the Asante Akyem lands, which were taken by Opoku Ware Katayyie. Ohemaa Dokuaa gave them the current Osino to settle, but when they misbehave, she sacked them. Akyem Wenchi (Kyidom) of Okyenhene pleaded for them and gave them the Nsayem now Akyem Oda areas to settle. All those people you mentioned are not Akyem, get it
He doesn't claim to be, but he is Okyenhene. Perhaps because you don't know the history or don't understand where the name is coming from. The name is coming Adansi Kokrobiante during the rule of the great Okyenhene, Nana Apeanin Kwaframoah. None of those you mentioned can claim to be Okyenhene, but Okyeman hene alone, aka. Kwaebibirem hence.
He is the only Okyenhene. Kotoku and Bosome are not Akyems, get it. Besides, they are squatters like the new Juabeng who were given a place to stay. Okyenhene remains the allodial owner of the lands on which they reside. Get it. It's an act of benevolence that they took their benefactor's name, Akyem, cos they are not Akyemfour. That is why Okyeman is one, and Okyenhene remains one

Counsellor Luthrode: He is rather Akyem Abuakwa Manhene but not Okyenhene.
Akyem Oda is also Akyem Kotoku Manhene just as Akyem Swedru is Akyem Bosome Manhene.
None is Okyehene in Ghana.

I don’t know why town inspectors are idly sitting and watching this health hazard. Dead bodies must be interred at the cemetery and not within residences.

This is a directive which under normal circumstances should come from the Government (the Ministry of Health using the Public Health Act to support the directive). Unfortunately, in Africa we allow some people to be above the law. No wonder our country/continent is as it is. My heartiest thanks to the Okyehene for having the courage to do what ought to be done by the Government. The African political leadership is the cause of the chaos and the lawlessness which we see across the continent. It is high we adhere to the laws governing us.

In every civilized society the dead are buried in a cemetery. The lawlessness is too much in Ghana. I also thank the Okyehene for his bold decision on the topical issue.

Then let us provide 24/7 security for our burial sites. Recently, a family in Accra claimed they couldn't find a family members grave. Let's shoe some modicum of respect to our dead, we are all going there sooner or later.

This is an issue for local authorities. Health and Safety. In Ghana, Local government is so weak that traditional authorities fill in the gaps, under the cover of "this is our land" mantra. Local councils must sit up and get working. Enforce Local bylaws. Don't wait for chiefs to do your job for you.

This is in response to an issue at Kwabeng
He supports a chief who’s having hard creating a new cemetery because the opposition family has decided to create their own cemetery and at the same time that family has 60 acre mausoleum they have to bury their royals for centuries. They have decided to bury anyone who pays for the rites and this decision has diminished the power of the chief he supports
Chieftain has deteriorated!!
