    What a hypocrite? This Okyehene sold all the Onyina (Silk cotton) trees in Akyem Abuakwa to an Italian timber company, arranged by Nana Akofo-Addo, claiming that they belong to him.

  • Kweku Appiah 10 years ago

    If the president had not said this ,that the headquarters of galamsey was your area, would you have come up with this "war?". You started well when you first came on the throne,but what happened.

    Say that again. During Akyem Abuakwa State Council's meetings, he alone speaks. And when he finishes, the meetings end, to be followed by feasts. Bravo to Nana Kwame Adjie Boateng.

  • ANTI 10 years ago

    I HOPE OKYENHENE MATCHES WORDS WITH DEEDS BY CEASING TO GIVE NEW TIMBER CONCESSIONS TO INDIVIDUALS AND PRIVATE COMPANIES IN AKYEM FOREST.
    HE SHOULD ALSO CANCEL EXISTING CONCESSIONS IF INVESTIGATIONS REVEAL THAT FELLED TREES ...
