Ashanti's are charcoal black, short and ugly. The average height of an Ashanti man is 5'4". Stop lying to urself
your hatred is too much man
U r stupid!
U are a big fool
Are all Ashantis black,short and ugly? The average of a category doesn't mean all have exact same. You'll get some beyond and others below. So brother come again with your comment was.
The renaissance is here. Time to pack off the Euro bullshit and its twin devil the church.
Africanize our churches ASAP.
African journalism at it's best. No editors or proof readers?
Did you yourself read the article right? I guess not since there is nowhere in the article that refers to the man as the bride. Proof read yourself bro.
There is idiot, read well
Ashanti's do not represent all of us Akan. Ashanti is different from kwahu, Fanti, akwapim, dankyira, etc. e
We may speak a similar language but we are not the same. Ashanti's are midget dwarfs but not all Akans are. Get tha ...

So, you think being light skinned makes you more handsome than a dark skinned ghanian? Your ignorance is very flamboyant, and you are shallow minded than the average shallow minded man.
Smart!!
You are really fucking stupid
Maybe he doesn't look Ashanti but yes he does look Ghanaian
Where did the writer got his information? Did he speak with some elders or decided to show case the Ashanti ethnic group?
The idea to provide some insight into traditional marriage is great. This article was poorly written however.
Looks like Ghanaweb needed something to fill this space.
another idiot Joe Turkey...you hate anythin Akan....a fool like you....
Ashantis don't wear this white shirt under a cloth. You are confusing fantes with Ashantes even with your "bodze" which is a fante word.
Plz,there you go to creat a sound bite for no reason. The Akan tribe culture travel among all the Akans and even to the Ga's and the Ewes.so for you to come out with no tangible facts to say the Ashantis don't wear shirt unde ...

The process described here is used by 95% of all the Ghanaian tribes and not Asantes alone. This people like hogging universal traditions. Very soon they will say Homowo, Asafotu or Hoghetsotso originated from the Asantes. ...

its not far fetch,tribal and political unrest, Ashantis wants the whole world to believe that Ghana is for them
just beatiful
Ashantis are apes, lunatics and evil. The worst tribe in Ghana, very corrupt and uneducated. They thrive in grandiose delusions.
With your comments I wonder why the Ashantis continue to be the spotlight in Ghana and around the world. Chances are that you speak their language to get around in your everyday environment. They will continue to dominate ...

Ashantis are uneducated right? We are uneducated, maybe, but we are very ambitions. So ambitious that the youngest ever woman Parliamentary candidate, probably anywhere in the world, is an Ashanti. You envious dude.

This mispreception must be removed from our identity Ashanti does not represent Akan
The writer did not say that. He said the Ashantis outnumber every tribe in Ghana.
Besides, their language is widely spoken than any language in Ghana.
"Statistics tell no lie"
Beats Me.
Wise TALK
BBC NEWS! !!!!.... Where are u? I really want ur comment cos i enjoy it. lol.....
WE HAS AKAN IN VOLTA , GA AND TAMALE DESPITE THE LANGUAGE DIFFERENT .
hi
ur pic dey bii
nice pic
What are the ethnic groups of Ghana, and according to the latest census which group constitutes the largest?
This writer confused Akans with Ashantis. He is ignorant of the fact that the Akan group is the umbrella under which the Ashanti group falls.
Our journalist should be trained to deconstruct such concepts
Beautiful. I hope Ghanaians will promote this fashion.
very beautiful love kente
FOO.LS,
Why mentioning Ashante tribe ???
We are talking about the Akan tribe which consits of many tribes that can speak and understand each other.
There is a saying that if you have nothing good to say shut your stinking mouth up- silly cannibal
Are Ashantis the only Akans?!! Whoever wrote this article needs to go back to upper primary school! Ashantis, Bono people, the Ahafos, Akuapem, Nzema and other people who speak Twi are Akans! Go back to school.
Now we've gone for oyebo way, what a shame. Asians still maintain their culture, why not.
Fact. The Titanic Tolerant Tribe in the world. By far, the influential tribe in West Africa similar to Yoruba and Zuru tribe in South Africa. By influence, I mean many things: Kente is one of them.
You can also write about your tribe.I 'm an Akan and very proud of our culture,the matrilineal inheritance,more stable,more prosperous and more sure. Côte d Ivoire Akans are more than 50% of the Ivorian population and have p ...

THIS IS NOT COMPLETE. AT WHAT POINT DO THEY CALL THE GIRL TO ASK OF HER OPINION? THEN ALSO WHO AND WHO ARE TO BE PRESENT DURING THE MARRIAGE CEREMONY. GHANA HAS INDEED LOST HER CULTURE. ALL WE ARE DOING IS COPY COPY.
