You're a fool.
This is very true. Ghana is a Republic and doesn't have a king over it. We have president as the supreme ruler and any other chief, elder or so called kings are subordinate to him. This is simple logic.
Why all this envy and jealous the constitution mentioned it that Ashanti Hene and paramount chief because there was Ashanti kingdom before Ghana He is a king of kings in Ashanti so if you are not interested kingdoms then he ...

It is not envy. It is the idiotic politicians who look for the votes in the tribal Ashanti region who has made the Ashanti hene to feel the way he feels.

I don’t think he was trying to say asantehene is bigger than the president whatsoever. He was just arguing about the fact that he believes he is a chief rather than a king
Asantehene is the king of the Asantis having several paramount chiefs under him per their tradition. He is not the king of gh. No other chief has paramount chiefs under him
Foolish man. Given the platform on borla Web to spew garbage. "So called golden stool"? What a sad twat. Use this cheap platform to project your god dawned tribe and leave the Asantehene and Asantes alone. Sia
