I am a northerner but very glad and proud that we stil have a king in Ghana.The king has the right to also enjoy the good things that ordinary people do,and that includes holidays anywhere in the world that like.But it should also not be a big story if Mahama is on holiday in Dubai, America or anywhere in this world.They need a change to prepare for the stress in their jobs.Atta Mills was killed in söuth Africa even though he lived,now they want to kill our king.Your majesty will live,dont mind the the rumour atall.Its my wish to visit the kings palace one day.Lets respect our elders than insulting them.Tradition demands that.

Nobody should be deceived by these pictures of the 'Otumfuo'. This is only a look alike! The Asantehene died weeks ago and has since been buried. They usually use a look-alike to deceive the public and this gives them the chance to get more human heads. You know the Ashanti custom requires the Asantehene to be buried with human heads. They dig a grave near the chief's grave and bury the heads there. As they get more heads they simply open it to add. The belief is that the dead Asantehene needs servants down there.

One thing is clear: you will not find any mad person left in Kumasi and Mampong where the killings are usually maximum. Northerners and Ewes in particular must watch their steps because they will go on with the killing spree for at least three months.

People are dying at KATH and this man did not say anything about that? Only talking about his false death. Is a real king for people? No wonder why people from that region are too selfish.

How can you lock our king in his palace without the people knowing his where about in the palace.
The king death was not a rumour it the truth to the people because only a dead king people dont see.
Money is the kings biggest problem, he pays more attention to wealth than the people. If a king is not well the first people to know are the people so that prayers can be given for his recovery, the came back from death and the next one he will not come back. He should be the people king not the king for the people. He should be able to go around his people all over his kingdom to promote those areas.
Palace king is not good for anything.

Asante chief and Asantes in general won't stop their arrogance. How can you call your colleague chief "young" brother? This a stupid talk can only come from a chief who is on drugs. irrespective of whatever reason, it is unwise and disrespectful for Asante chief to call another chief "young". A chief on drugs.

You are just a fool. If a Asantehene is older than the Techimanhene, is he not a younger brother? You are just stupid and find everything wrong with Asantes?

You will die a stupid fool

How can you call an "Omanhene" let alone the Asantehene a chief. The Takyimanhene is of the same clan like the Asantehene (i.e.) Oyoko clan. However, in terms of seniority and status he is lower in rank, therefore he can be considered as his younger brother. Just like the Asantehene refers to the Dwabenhene (Juabenhene) as his senior brother. Just like Asantehene refers to Nsutahene as his uncle. Just like Okyenhene refers to his Asona clan brothers (Ejisuhene, Offinsohene) as younger brothers. Just like the occupant of the Asumegya stool can refer to his Aduana/Aberade brothers i.e. Dormaahene, Kumawuhene, Kwamanghene, Agogohene etc. as younger brothers.

Ashanti has no history.... Ashanti has no history that can inspire her people. This is merely an attempt to prettify itself a brilliant Akan image in the eyes of innocent people. As a matter of fact, Ashanti has no glory to advertise at all.
The most prominent characteristics of Ashanit is its eternal mati meho war. Establishment of Mati meho has been Ashanti kingdom's highest goal since its inception.

Ashantis openly declare that Akan is peace, Akan is this, Akan is that. But their goal is the forceful overthrow of all existing social structures. Violence, intimidation, and terror are the main means by which Ashanti gained power in the past 600 years.

During the past 600 years, Ashantis have slaughtered over 60 million Africans.
Today, Ashantis have degenerated into a fascist political ideology struggling to promote fake property owning democracy, violence, hatred and bigotry. Ashantis are not interested in pursuing any lofty goals of democracy, freedom, peace, tolerance, human rights and coexistence.

Ashantis rigidity, fanatic belief system, indoctrination, and oppression and unconditional conformity has not changed. Ashantis still situating itself above any tribe, remove any non mati meho deemed detrimental or potentially detrimental to its own rigid system.
The history of Ashanti shows a process of its gradual accumulation of every kind of brutality and wickedness and has perfected its inherited wicked traits with deceit, incitement, espionage, robbery, targeted assassination, violence, terror and mass murder.

So why did Otumfour arrive in Kumasi in the Presidential Jet ? See, this is why people say all kinds of things to him. Ga mantse will never be given the privilege to travel abroad with his entourage on the presidential jet. Your close association with the president and his brother is a major concern in the Ashanti region. Ibrahim is seen in Kumasi driving around in your Rolls Royce. Otumfour's car ? That is shameful.
