Every Asantehene since independence has gotten preferential treatment and every Ghanaian knows why. Even under Rawlings the late Opoku Ware's medical trip abroad was footed by the govt. He was almost always met on arrival by Vice Prez Mills or some govt officials. I have pictorial evidence to back what I'm saying.
Whether we like it or not, no traditional ruler can be compared to the Asantehene. Nobody including even a sitting govt can change that fact. Let's all eschew these petty tribal hatred and envy and think about what puts food on our table.

But with his people. If you refuse to honour your King, others who see his worth would do it. Ashanti Kingdom can never be the same as NPP. There are a lot of Ashantis in NDC and other parties whether the present NPP followers like it or not. The Otumfour is not "anybody". See the type of diganateiries at his coronation. Infact NPP is trying to bastardise every single institution in this country, from the Police, to the Judiciary and now to the Ashanti Kingdom. Rawlings remained a good friend of the late Asantehene, Mahama is a very good friend of the current one. It seems to me NPP wants all the Asantehenes to be at war with any other party except them, but it would not happen. The NDC is just being too smart for them, period.

There is no smoke without fire , many times our chiefs for 30 pieces of silver have betrayed the interests of the people . they not only take money but also actively promote the most toxic of ideas against the welfare of the people . We have had an ayigbe/pepeni revolution and now the wind changes and the Akan revolution will come to be whether through the ballot box or by war it will come to pass . let these pepeni and ayigbe feel what its like to see their women stripped naked and whipped in the streets by our frisky boys , let them see what its like for both the innocent and guilty without discrimination be accused corruption and thrown in jail , let them see what its like to have their eminent men manhandled and tortured so that a few years later they all die of stroke , heart attaches and stress, let them see what is like to watch their sons and daughters have to travel the 7 seas just to find a better future as at home pepeni and ayigbe revolutionaries will steal their businesses or deny them the chance . yes we now not only polarize but radicalize since liberals like mills are killed and nana rejected ,it is time for fearless righteous Akans like ken agyapong , ursula and sir john to be flag bearers . ndc you just continue your corrupt ways but soon we will have you , your wives , children , girlfriends pay the a very dear price for your greed . keep on bribing these chiefs we have the family heads and clans on our side , long live the republic of Akan

This is not the time to talk about drugs. We are talking about improprieties. Let Ayariga ask himself if the Nagbonwura, Togbe Afedi, Ga Manche etc was allowed to use the Prez Jet, what would have happened? This is no tribalism but the real realities on the ground. Is that how low Ayariga can stoop low to? Very soon, the Asantehene can declare himself the president of Ghana. Is there a truism about the accusation leveled against the Asantehene with regard to the bribery allegation or it is his reward for something SPECIAL he did to Mahama to merit this. NPP/NDC, be objective. This is improper. I see this as an attempt by the Asantehene to carry his ego as the KING OF GHANA which is totally unacceptable. As the most prominent traditional ruler in Ghana, and widely respected, that is true but this time, he was carried over by his pomposity
Mahama, Dagbonwura, Chief of Dakpema shrine, Ga Manche and all the traditional rulers are ready for the usage of the PRESIDENTIAL TRO TRO.

I am sorry you're making wrong comparisons. You can't compare the Ashanti king to Queen of England.Because while she is the Queen of England he is just a tribal King over a region within but not the whole country. Further more, in the UK the prime minister is accountable to the Queen. This is not so with the president and the Ashanti (tribal) King. In Ghana the Ashanti(tribal) King is like any other King in Ghana and they all come under the President like any other citizen in Ghana. In the UK the Queen is the Sovereign ruler over all the citizens and they are her subjects including the prime minister. I am sorry you're totally and fundamentally wrong and there is no justification for taxpayers monedy to be used for a tribal King. I don't believe the same offer will be given to other Kings when the need arise. Please be careful how you make comparisons. Thanks

VERY VERY CORRUPT PERSON & HIS DESIRE TO GET PEOPLE INTO HIS POCKET WITH HIS CORRUPT APPROACHES - JUST LIKE HE DID TO BUY VOTES IN THE 2012 ELECTIONS WITH HIS FREEBIES OF SUCH LIKE LAP-TOPS, 4 X 4'S AND NADMO INVENTORIES!!!

Where is the jet going to be parked? How much will Ghana pay for the number of days he spends in London? NDC is out of their minds. Mahama is a fool and so is all his followers.

The question is how much was the trip and who footed the bill? A friend of mine owns a Gulstream jet and the cost of aviation fuel for a two hour flight could be in excess of $5000. The Presidential jet, larger than the a Gulf Stream, consumes more fuel. So the cost of a 12 hour fly time to London and back on the presidential jet is quite high. Landing and parking charges even makes it higher. If the the economy is down to the bone, it is senseless for Mahama and Otumfuor to engage in this luxury.

A man traveling by plane was in urgent need of a restroom
facility, but each time he tried, it was occupied. The flight
attendant, aware of his predicament, suggested he use the
attendants Ladies Room but cautioned him not to press any of the
buttons. There, next to the paper roll were four buttons marked
respectively: WW WA PP ATR
Making the mistake sooooo many men make of not listening to a
woman, he disregarded what she said when his curiosity got the
best of him. He careful pressed the WW button and immediately a
gentle flush of Warm Water sprayed on his bare bottom. He
thought, "Wow, these gals really have it nice." So, a little more
boldly he pressed the WA button. Body temperature Warm Air blew
across his wet bottom and dried it comfortably. "Ah ha," he
thought, "No wonder these women take so long in the bathroom with
these kind of services!" So he pushed the next button, PP, with
anticipation. A soft disposable Powder Puff swung below him and
dusted his bottom lightly with talc. "Man, this is great," he
thought as he reached out for the ATR button... When he awoke in
the hospital, the morphine was just wearing off, so in
confusion, he buzzed the nurse to find out where he was and what
had happened. He explained the last thing he remembered was
intense pain in the ladies room on the plane. The nurse
explained, "Yes, you must have been having a great time until
you pushed the "Automatic Tampon Removal Button." "By the way,
your penis is under your pillow."

According to Merriam Webster dictionary a public officer is a person who has been legally elected or appointed to office and who exercises governmental functions. Thus, Otumfuo Osei Tutu is not a public officer as he was not elected or appointed to perform government function. This makes him ineligible to use the presidential jet.
