Flag of Kumerica

Kumericans are taking their state to the next level.

According to them, residents in Accra cannot stand the ‘pressure’ they are bringing to Ghana. All eyes on Kumasi, pardon us, Kumerica.

Some of the features of the Kumerican flag can be likened to that of the flag of the United States of America.

Only God knows what the green and black colours in the flag represents. However, the porcupine which is seen on the flag is symbolic to the Ashanti Kingdom. There is also the golden star, yes, not our usual black stars.
