please,use your real name and leave my name out of this.much as I may agree with you about the corrupt nature of barima asumadu sakyi{when he withdrew 1million cedis from kumawu accounts in 1972?},I beg to differ with you regarding to fact thaty the present kumawuhene is not a true royal. his mother juaben serwaa was a true royal and his father agya sarfo,a true royal of nsuta so he is qualified to be chief. unfortuanately there have been 3 royal successions all from ankaase{otuo acheampong,asumadu sakyi and now sarfo.the ananagyas also deserve a chance but somewhere in 1774,king osei kwadwo okoawia[osei kumaa] barred all royals from ananagya from ascending the kodua stool. what you need to do is systematically go through all formalities for manhyia and asanteman council reverse that ban so you also may fall in line. I know the history very well and people comment about it out of ignorance.simply plead with otumfuo and asanteman to reverse the ban and stop the patapaa! sorry I have to let the cat out of the bag! go ask the elders what the kumawu chief from ananagya family did to warrant such a ban.

The ban is on The Odumase folks from where hails Joe Fry. Okoere Fenini, the then Kumawuhene was The Commander of Asante troops during the Banda war. The enchanted bull of Asanteman to the war was slaughtered with Okotere Fenin's "dagga"/knife for food, hence Asanteman lost the war.
That is how Okotere Fenin's Odumase lineage were banned from ascending the throne.

The ONE AND ONLY KUMAWUHENE is BARIMA SARFO TWENEBOA KODUA, the occupant of Kumawu Palace.

Answer these questions Adofo Rockson:
(1) How did Kumawu chieftaincy process get to Manhyia Palace?

(2) To whom did Koo Oduro, swore oath of allegiance?
Oh, by the way, who took the inventory of the stool properties before Koo Oduro swore the oath, IF he did?

(3) Are you aware that the then Dr. Yaw Sarfo, NOW BARIMA SARFO TWENEBOA KODUA was nominated and presented to Gyaasehene by Nana Serwaa Amponsaa, Kumawuhemaa as custom demands?

(4) Are you aware that Gyaasehene on an appointed date and time presented DOCTOR to The Kingmakers of Kumawu at Krontihene's house?

(5) At Krontihene's house, something happened that halted the process of Kumawuman installing our new king. What happened?

"Professor" Adofo Rockson, please distinguish between:
BRIBERY and EXTORTION.
By Asante custom and usage, what is "SIKASA"?
Can "sikasa" considered as bribe?

Kumawuhemaa gave "sikasa" to the Kingmakers as custom demand. It was by no means considered as bribe.
However, out of sheer greed, the kingmakers demanded more money which in my opinion, was an attempt to extort what was not due them.
Kumawuhemaaa exposed them in front of Asanteman; they were humiliated. Her action needs to be applaud by all, especially those who eschew bribery and corruption.
By the way, in Koo Oduro's quest to ascend the throne, through his mediator/"DWAATOA NI" presented "drinks" to Kumawuhemaa Nana Serwaa Amponsaa, asking to be considered as the nominee, same as the rest of the contestants. So were they trying to bribe Kumawuhemaa? Absolutely NOT; that is what our custom demands.

So you see your hypocrisy, Adofo Rockson; you are always talking about corruption here and there. Kumawuhemaa exposed would be extortionist, oh she is giving bribe. Hmmmm,eden asem ni?"

Your own people invoked Asantehene's great oath to halt Kumawuman's peaceful process of installing our king and brought it before Asantehene, and for that matter Asanteman. ALL CHARGES against Doctor fell flat. Doctor's father came out in public for all to see him. Where is your "beef"? Please if you think the course you and your cronies have taken will bring "development" to Kumawuman, then think again. That means history has taught you ABSOLUTELY NOTHING! Have forgotten YEATEASEM so soon? I hope not. "OKWASEA DUA NA YETIASO MPRENU"
Kumawuman is united behind Barima Sarfo Tweneboa Kodua and we are moving forward. If Koo Oduro and his concert party think he is the king, he should come to the palace and conduct meetings with the rest of the Traditional Council; he should come and assume his duties, for his subjects are ready to "serve" him.
Kumawuman deserves better than that. We need PEACE and Tranquility so that each and everyone will contribute their quota in our community building
ENOUGH OF THE USELESS LITIGATION.
BARIMA SARFO TWENEBOA KODUA NKWASO!
KUMAWUMAN NKWASO!!
