What did they go there to do? What the lady said wasn't disrespectful. She only stated the truth but as we all know, the Ashantis claim Otumfuo is god and doesn't commit any mistakes. They issued apology both on live TV and social media. That's the end. If they banned them from going to Kumasi, is that place their hometowns?

Afia Pokua whether a Frafra or Krobo girl knew the exact consequences of her outbursts, jealousy, envy, and disrespect for the Otumfour and Ashantis. Going by Mahama's insults, that Ghanaians have short memories, she thought after apologising and trending for a few days, Ghanaians or Ahantis for that matter, will forget. Buoyed by stupid people like Dormaahene, Captain Smart, Twene Jonas, Kelvin Taylor, A-Plus, etc., she foolishly fumed damming the consequences. She should not be pardoned since she feels "she has her democratic right to speak her stupid mind." Which country condones such stupidity? She should be evaporated from any media. Foolish woman like that.

Kwasia gyimiii, didn't the Ashanti regional minister insult Northeners that their duty is to carry faeces in Kumasi? Stupid fool, didn't he say that on TV and radio? Primitive animals! If you claim you love your Asantisem Soo much why don't you idiots stay in your Ashanti region but troop to Europe and America in your hundreds of thousands? It took outsiders to open your primitive eyes and brains.

Which people in our history sold us to the slave traders if not you Ashantis! Fools. Look at the level of corruption when an Ashanti became president! Anyone should visit the Nsawam prisons and what do you see? Greater percentage of inmates are Ashantis!

Your criminal gangster Otumfuor has been declared an unwanted commodity in Canada. He should use his useless power to redeem his image over there. Animals!!

What happened to Okatakyie Africa Mensah when actually insulted the Nungua chief? Was he treated that way. What did the lady say that is not true? The hypocrisy of the Otumfuor regarding galamsey destroying water bodies in the Ashanti region is alarming and you primitive fools are saying what?! This is a national security issue and an international embarrassment and disgrace for a so called king in a republic to sit aloof and allow this nonsense to take place??

Chairman Wontumi said worse. What happened to him? He was rather hailed by the same hypocrites and cowards attacking this lady. What happened to Odike when he also spoke the truth about the hypocrisy of your aimless Otumfuor. Celebrating Akwasidae foolishly in the UK with galamsey donation. Twene Jonas and other Ashantis are blasting the Otumfuor left and right. How many curses has your Antoa managed to inflict on him. Useless empty threats. If your Otumfuor is that powerful, he should have Twene Jonas deported from the US and stop his silly tantrums!! Mmoa!!

We Asantes respect our chiefs and elders. We don't insult a chief in public even if they err. We have a more dignified manner that will not compromise public peace. If the Nungua Chief decided to let it go it is up to him. If you people want to compare our Chieftancy system with the wester democracy system, that is the reason our social fibre is fast deteriorating and any young person can insult people in authority even if it will cost us our peace.

Boss, what we Ghanaians want from the Otumfuor is to stop the galamsey. Period! That excuse about when the government issues a mining concession he has no power to prevent anybody from doing business. That's irresponsibly flimsy! What an embarrassment when you hear some of these whites claim that we are the world leading polluter of rivers and water bodies. You people have no idea the insults rained on Ghanaians not only Ashantis about a village chief who overlooks the destruction of water bodies and rivers and finds time to celebrate some savage and primitive festival in the UK! I have video recordings of some of my colleagues here embarrassing us. I wish you could come and feel it yourself!!

Hello, we live in a new era where the social media rules. If chiefs want to be respected they must act right. Respect is earned and awarded or given. If I were the King, I would have invited this brave young woman to my palace have a discussion with her and after a nice dinner with her. She bravely pointed out a lot things that other people feel about the behavoir of Ashantis.

The most dangerous society is the one where people are walk around being angrywith each other but cannot vent. The day the venting occurs it becomes very deadly.
Let me remind of Rwanda. That is how the hutus felt and the result was 800000 people simply massacred in 4 months. My friend that is not what we want in Ghana.

Can't you ask your King to tone down a little bit? Can Ashantis tone down a little bit. I think you are all in the Speed lane driving like maniacs.

Years ago I listened to a sermon by Pastor Mensa Otabil and understand why it's dangerous to insult prominent people or leaders. Usually, they care less what people say to or about them. It is usually their followers or admirers who are very dangerous.

Some of those followers are so stupid that they can just end your life and think they are pursuing a just cause. That's why I believe that aTwene Jonas has to be very careful and watch his back.

ASANTES AND TRIBALISM IN GHANA

When the lady was summoned to Manhyia, the elders interrogated her about her tribe. She identified herself as Kwahu. However, the elders pressed on, inquiring about her parents' origins and refusing to acknowledge her Kwahu heritage. They went further, attempting to impose their own narrative about her roots, linking her to Krobo, Ewe, or FraFra. Their ultimate motive was clear: to undermine her identity. To what end was their questions even if she was Krobo, Ewe or Frafra. That was extreme Tribalism.

Yesterday, she boldly exposed Manhyia's entrenched tribalism. The very headquarters of tribalism was laid bare.

Gross display of ignorance. No person in Ghana is above reproach. Chiefs should have no right to be summoning Ghanaians to their palaces to answer for comments that they deem to be offensive. All citizens have the right to top use the civil courts in Ghana to pursue defamation claims. Chiefs should not be using their palaces as bullying pulpits.

Harassing women at Manhyia palace. This nonsense has gone to BBC. Now the British people and the whole world know how stupid our so called chiefs are. A young woman speaking sense and telling you to stop polluting land and water bodies is the one you have called to humiliate and body shame. If you translate what she said and what the chiefs said in English you understand how smart she is and how stupid the chiefs are.

The youth who was that bold to yank off Akua Pokua scarf and struck her from behind must be charged with assault and jailed . That is a primitive act and it reflects on any body who took part in this dubious and disgraceful traditional court of self serving elders . Failure of the police to charge this twerp with assault on Akua Pokua will indicate a complacency of the police . Infact Akua Pokua should sue this idiot and all the elders present. Nobody is above the law and if this happened in the presence of these elders, they are liable . What would have happened if this fool caused bodily harm to Akua Pokua during the attack or something untoward happened to her . Will that have pleased the chiefs ? If this elders were truly respected, no body could have attacked this lady in their presence. The IGP should arrest this stupid fool and prosecute him for aggravated assault. Ghana is not a jungle .

I think this girl has defeated Asanteman. She sent them reeling, with their foundation vigorously shaken.

With the so-called power, might and weight of the "kingdom," they should have ignored her or accept her apology with all the scorn it deserved and send away with her tail between her legs.

Now, they are killing a tiny, poor, wretched ant with a sledge hammer and making her rather more popular, if not famous.
