  Adofo, now you see how justice is dispensed in Ghana? That's why the chieftaincy situation between the Abudus and Andanis will never be solved. If you want what is yours, you have to fight for it with physical force, not through the court system which is heavily skewed in favour of the corrupt. At this point, I can only wish peace in Kumawu. The Tweneboah Koduah stool is lost and gone forever, spearheaded by the ungrateful Asantehene who had the nerve to strip this great omanhene of his royalty despite his unparalled sacrifice to Asanteman. Let all Asanteman be witnesses to this evil act by the Asantehene to sever Tweneboah Koduah and his family from the Kumawu royalty.

  John and Rockson perhaps you have learnt a lesson or two. Anybody who have read your numerous articles would realized that you intend to incite violence which will never happen. You should have known that the the queenmother holds the balance of power and therefore it would be very difficult for any of the Ananagya royals to be enstooled. What you Rockson and Basoah have said so far have not helped but rather angered the kingmakers. My advise to you is to be a good citizend as you project yourself to be and support the incoming Paramount chief...the die is cast...Peace be upon Kumawuman and its citizen. We hope the era of Asumadu Sakyi shall never be repeated.
  With regards to the land grab by Asantehene we wait to see as it is over-reaching and total encroachment of our land and we shall not sit aloof for him to enjoy what is wrongfully his...the same goes for Aduanahene, he has been going around making himself the defecto chief collecting bribes here and there to enrich himself. See the house he built for himself?

  Enough of your ranting, you false prophet. Be man and bold enough to accept defeat in good faith. No amount of instigation will turn WE THE PEOPLE of Kumawuman against each other. We are solidly UNITED behind DOCTOR Barima........ for PEACE,DEVELOPMENT, PROSPERITY and LOVE FOR ONE ANOTHER. All who ascribe to these virtues should join WE THE PEOPLE OF KUMAWUMAN. Litigations has kept us, WE THE PEOPLE captive over four decades; we collectively say ENOUGH IS ENOUGH. Enough time wasted in court rooms; enough money wasted on lawyers; enough of the hatred and divide. This is NOT the KUMAWUMAN handed over to us with the blood and sweat of our ancesters, inluding but not limited to NANA AKYEA KWAFO - the originator of Apemso, Nana Kofi Siaw, under whose reign Apemso expanded with influx of immigrants that swelled the population, amongst them were The Ananangya/Odumase folks from Essumja. No one was branded and considered "foreigner" BUT we were all BROTHERS AND SISTERS living in harmony and brothrly love.
  
  Enough has been said how The Ananangya/Odumase's staged a coup d'tat against The Apemso Royals and crowned themselves rulers of the land. It was bloody and barbaric. Every dynasty that has a beginning ultimately has an end; and the evil men do lives after them, they say. Great men of old, such as The Legendry BARIMA TWENEBOA KODUA served in his time and has inscribed his name on stones that cannot be erased in Asanteman in particular and Ghana in general. He paid the ultimate price to redeem Asanteman.
  Another great man, Nana Kodua Kokoo, who sought to end the tragedy which had befallen his family, brought in THE MEDIATOR, Madam Ayo. Her lineage are The Ankaase royals. Madam Ayo's daughter Yaa Mansah was married to Asantehene Otumfour Osei Yaw Akoto and thereby her brother Dabo was appointed chief of Kumawu after the demise of Barima Kodua Kokoo.
  So you see, The Ananangya/Odumase's took power by force from the Apemso Royals; The Ankaase folks got power by association to The Golden Stool. The old order changed and gave way to the new : APEMSO > ANANANGYA/ODUMASE > ANKAASE. The record prooved Nana Kodua Kokoo wright : the tragedy that had befallen his family stopped and Kumawuman saw stability and development under The Ankaase rule. History and records shows that The Ankaase's reigned longer on the throne and are more acceptable by The departed souls/spirits of Apemso and The Living. Ironically, the SAET OF APEMSO, present day NANANOM YAADWAASE and AMANIEHENE of Kumawu is occupied by Nana Okoben Kokoo Osiakwan II. He traces his paternal lineage to Ankaase, grandson to Opanin Kwaku Duah aka Kwabena Nson. Opanin Kwaku Duah's mother , Yaa Amponsaa was one of the children begoted to Adumhene Nana Agyei Kakabu, therefore great, great, great grandson to Apemsohene (Yaadwaasehene/Amaniehene). Interesting, no wonder we are enjoying peace and stability in the land.
  The above revelation goes to affirm that man proposes BUT God disposes. Out of slavery, Joseph reigned in the land of Egypt. Though the people of Isreal were under bondage for four hundred years in Egypt, IT WAS ALL WITHIN GOD'S PLAN OF REDEMPTION. God NEVER rewards evil; and NEVER FORSAKE His People. At the appropriate time, He redeem them. That is what we have witnessed in Kumawu
  The people of Egypt can only bask in the glory of their Pharoahs, same way Kumawuman can bask in the glory of The Legendry Barima Tweneboa Koduah. When God lifts up a hand, NO power/force can bring it down.
  Let me cease the opportunity to congratulate Kumawuhemaa Nana Serwaa Amponsaa for being bold and taking a FIRM STAND to uphold the wishes of The People which is the wish of GOD, by giving to US DOCTOR YAW SARFO, soon to be addressed as DOCTOR BARIMA...........( I hope he will keep that title as well, DOCTOR BARIMA.........)
  
  Let us all pray for him that The Almighty God will endow upon him WISDOM and The Fear of God to execute his duties humbly to relief the burdenS of The People. Any attempt by any group or individual to derail his administration will be resisted and met FIERCELY. We have tested the waters and have seen that nothing good came out of 40 YEARS of LITIGATIONS than abject poverty, low self esteem and hatred; we will NOT allow same to be repeated. This is the moment we've been waiting for; The Opportunity to redeem ourselves from the shackles of litigations. THE HOUR OF REDEMPTION IS HERE, LET US ALL EMBRACE IT. Support the Doctor and allow him to heal our wounds; we need UNITY AND LOVE, the missing link in our community. Together we can achieve this.
  KUMAWUMAN NKWASO!!!!!

  The Asantes needed a human sacrifice. Tweneboa Koduah was lured to offer himself under the promise that his generation would be accorded some time to occupy the Kumawu stool. Simply put Tweneboa Koduah was a donko (a slave in modern parlance).
