The Vice President of Ghana, Professor Naana Jane Opoku-Agyemang, who attended Mfantsipim School’s 150th Anniversary celebration alongside the Asantehene, Otumfuo Osei Tutu II, the Minister of Education and other dignitaries, has been captured in a moment involving the Asantehene as the national anthem was being played.

As the national anthem began, the Vice President and other dignitaries stood up. However, in the process, Professor Opoku-Agyemang was captured giving Otumfuo a tap, drawing attention to their brief interaction.

The reason for her gesture remains unclear. It is uncertain whether she was reminding the Asantehene to stand and observe the national anthem or attempting to pass on some information to him, particularly as Otumfuo was already in the process of standing up.

The Asantehene eventually stood in his traditional cloth and respectfully observed the national anthem alongside the other dignitaries before they all took their seats.

The celebration, organised in collaboration with the Mfantsipim Old Boys Association (MOBA) in Cape Coast, brought together several distinguished personalities to mark the school's 150th anniversary.
