  All Ashantis in this 21st century, including the most educated and the most learned regard Kwaku Dua as GOD.They say he cannot be criticized.He does no wrong.He is infallible.So,why is this Adofo wasting his time?

  Mr. Adofo again. Insults and attempt to degrade the office and person of Asantehene as usual. But you should be fair to society by being truful and accurate. Acknowledge that:
  1. It is not Asantehene who installed and/ or imposed Kumawuhene on Kumawuman. All customary processes were performed and he was properly installed.
  2. Kumawuhene is not supposed Omanhene. He has been gazzetted and registered as chief in the national register of chiefs. He is recognized as such by the National House of Chiefs.
  3. The Kumawuhene was admitted in Ashanti Regional House of Chief and is even a member of the Judicial Committee of the House.
  4. Article 270(1) of Ghana's constitution states in part that the institution of Chieftaincy together
  with its traditional councils established by custom and usage is guaranteed.
  5. The Asanteman Council and the position of Asantehene is guaranteed by the constitution. The council as the arbiter of Chieftaincy cases in Asante is recognized in law.
  6. Attempts to degrade the authority of Asantehene and Asanteman Council will suffer loss.
  7. Chieftaincy cases pass through the Traditional Councils, Judicial Committes of Regional and National Houses of Chiefs and the Supreme Court.
  8. One cannot seek redress on Chieftaincy issues in the law courts apart from the Supreme Court and only after the Traditional Council and Judicial Committes of Regional and National Houses of Chiefs.
  9. There is no Chieftaincy case on Kumawu at Traditional Council and Judicial Committee of Regional and National House of Chiefs.

  What a fool. If Kumawu stool is not subservient to Asantehene or Asanteman, then why does the Kumawu chief go and swear an oath of allegiance.
  
  Why can't Kumawu just enstool its chief and forget about Manhyia?

  Adofo, my ancestors are from Kumawu Bodomase and more tied to Kumawu than you whose only claim to Kumawu is patrilineal but Asantes inherit matrimonially and therefore you Adofo is not even a citizen of Kumawu.

  The Ananangya/Odumase claim to the royalty of APEMSO (Kumawu) was but temporal. Their self-imposed reign was ushered in by a barbaric act perpetrated against The Apemso Royals. The scripture says, Let the tree be a bad one and its fruits will be equally bad. Their forebearer Adofoahyee left "home" i.e. Assumja after his failed contest for the Assumja stool. These folks after wandering like Normads were finally settled by Apemsohene Nana Kofi Siaw and were given protection from their would-be assailants. Baakamfo Siaw Odiawuo was succeeded by his brother Nana Kwasi Aboagye. It was during Nana Aboagye's reign that these immigrants from Assumja, The Ananangya/Odumase folks staged a coup d'tat to overthrow The Apemso administration to crown themselves rulers of Apemso. Their act was BARBARIC and CRUEL which almost eradicated all the men from The Royal Family of Apemso. Nana Aboagye died of the wounds he sustained at Aboofrem. Ths is how they became ACURSED.
  Their short reign was mared with tragedy upon tragedy, even to the extent of INSANITY/MADNESS. Their average reign on their self-made stool was 4-5 years; (I stand to be corrected). Kumawuman suffered tremendously under this cursed group by wrongful association until God's appointed time that ushered in The Ankaase Dynasty. The records are there for all to see: longivity and stability returned to the throne, coupled with DEVELOPMENT.
  Out of jealousy, these Ananangya/Odumase folks hatched a plot to bring The Ankaase Dynasty to his knees: hence The Infamous YEATEASEM ERA, which dragged young Barima Asumadu-Sakyi II to court over 1.5 million cedis. They end up spending over 100 billion cedis lining the pockets of lawyers and their likes all in a failed
  attempts to topple Barima Asumadu-Sakyi II. Quality time to be spent on meaningful projects and developments were vwasted at courtrooms. These same sore loosers turned around and blame The Omanhene for the deplorable state Kumawuman find ourselves. ENOUGH OF THE LITIGATIONS, PERIOD! Enough of the accolade," Kumawufo' mansotwefo'. While others are pulling resources for development projects to benefit their people, Adofo and his cronies are bent on continuing the same old rugged road to poverty, MANSOTWEE. WE THE PEOPLE HAVE LEARNT A LESSON AND WILL NOT FALL FOR YOUR CALCULATED LIES AND INSTIGATIONS.
  
  How did Kumawu chieftaincy affair found its way to Manhyia Palace?
  Why invoke Otumfour's great oath if he is not superior?
  
  My simple advice to Adofo and his cronies is , as acknowledged by Adofo himself, "When Asantehene Speaks, The Wise Listens" by Adofo Rockson, Ghanaweb - 20th March 2010.
  Otumfour in his wisdom tried hard to impose hefty fines on the Krontihene, Aduanahene, Akwamuhene and Bodomasehene to unite with the Queenmother to instal her nomited one in the person of the then Dr. Yaw Sarfo. The Wise one amongst them listened and still commanding respect among his people. The rest who did not listen to the wise council of Otumfour has vanished into thin air.
  All doubting Thomas' should come to Kumawu and see for themselves that BARIMA has hit the groung running and there is no turning back. With God on our side, The Lights of Apemso will SHINE again.
  BARIMA SARFO TWENEBOA KODUA NKWASO!
  KUMAWUMAN NKWASO!!

  Otumfour in his wisdom tried NOT to impose hefty fines on Krontihene, Aduanahene, Akwamuhene, Bodomasehene and all those nation wreckers who were caught pants down lying about Barima's eligibility.

  The people of Kumawu think that Asante belongs to them. They always bluff that they are the bravest people in Ghana: all because of Tweneboa Kodua. They forget that a leper killed their chief at Saibuso, after which Tweneboa Kodua was enstooled as Kumawuhene. Did the people of Kumawu know the number of chiefs who lost their lifes in numerous wars they fought? What is bravery? Bravery is a word used to describe a person who achieves a feat to help the people, not to act 'patapaa' to the people, as Kumawu people are notorious for.

  Everything is open so prepare for that. It helps democrcy to correct itself. To criticise itself. To rebuke itself. To recognised it steps. To mold itself, and to accept it wickedness and cruelties for repairations.
