    Broken record? It also means too many women have died as Asantehemaa under his watch as Asantehene. They are probably choosing very old ladies or sick women. You can't glory over this.

  • IF YOU SELECT VERY OLD WOMEN, BREAKING THE RECORD IS EASY 2 weeks ago

    This is not rocket science. Once you keep selecting older women instead of younger or middle aged women, it is easy to break the record and even set a new record. This is common sense. Why make mystic out of everything?

    Otumfour want to do another big funeral to cash out again he never chose young lady who will be there for long time, Ashanti's made a big mistake to chose a crook like Kwaku Duah as their leader, the man is selfish.
