    YOU CLAIM TO BE A KUMAWU CITIZEN WITH THIS FAKE ROCKSON NAME. YOU LIKE ABROFO NAME- SHAME ON YOU. YOU INSULT THE ASANTE KING UNDER THIS FOOLISH ROCKSON NAME. IF YOU ARE A MAN BRING OUT YOU ASANTE NAME

  • YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND! 9 years ago

    AGYEMAN IT'S NOT ABOUT HIS ABROFO NAME,
    HE IS PASSING ON A VERY IMPORTANT MESSAGE AND DEALING WITH A TERRIBLE INJUSTICE, THAT IS THE ISSUE HERE AND NOT HIS NAME.

  • Yaw Manu 9 years ago

    Rockson can bleat and gloat all day but the Asantehene will always have his way. Stupid Rockson Adofo should realise that there are two factions in this dispute so I wonder how he thinks Kumawuman can break away. That will no ...

    How stupid, what about Asanteman?

  • Nero 9 years ago

    Mr Rockson, while I cannot take any sides on the issues you aver until I've heard from the other side, I'm concerned by the allegations of known crookery and criminality you heap on the Asantehene. Those are very serious char ...

    I agree with you, he has a lot but I do not know why he is sitting on it. Release is for the rest to see.

  • Kofi Ata, Cambridge, UK 9 years ago

    Mr Adofo Rockson, I assume you from the Kumawu royal family or from Kumawu. I also understand from your articles that there is a (chieftaincy) dispute over the occupancy of the Kumawu stool and you are a supporter of one of t ...

    Nana Ameyaw, the fact is that I detest patronizing this Adofo guy's write-ups but I must hasten to say his staunch hatred for the Asantehene stems from his perception that the Asantehene is an NDC and therefore must be crucif ...

    That is not how we the citizens of Kumawu sees it. He must stay away from our affairs. We don't care what party Otumfuo has sold his soul to, he can form his own party for all we care. He just need to leave us alone and le ...

    Rockson,
    Why did you skip the Confederation that took place in 1935 under the able leadership of Nana Osei Agyeman Prempeh II ?

    You narrated your limited knowledge of Asante History to suit your agenda. Shame on you.

    He embezzled the 35 million dollars from the World Bank meant for the poor kids in Kumasi. The Otumfour Fund he has established has no bank account and he cannot account for all the money he has collected over the years
