Kumawuhemaa Plans to go to Court over the Kumawu Chieftaincy Verdict

Common sense is common but it is not always common to people who don't aspire to learn common sense. Insatiable quest for wealth and fame by greed has most often landed people in the land of "ante adze". "Ante adze" is a place full of regret of ones actions when you happen to find yourself there. Once there, you say to yourself, if I knew, I wouldn't have committed the very action(s) that brought me over here. It is always the adage of "Had I known is always at last" that best befits how regrettable it is to be in the mental or physical state of that dungeon called "ante adze". Most often, a child that refuses to listen to the noble parental advice finds themselves in that precarious state of mental anguish called "ante adze".

Kumawuhemaa by her untoward social behaviour emanating from selfishness, greediness and lack of foresight has got herself completely mired in "ante adze". She surrounded herself with men and women of equally same deplorable character. Now that the noose is closing upon her, some are finding flimsy excuses to desert her while others out of lack of common sense are goading her on. What is happening to her is in fulfilment of God's own purpose as revealed in many of my previous articles.

Anyway, Kumawuhemaa blinded by greediness which may have robbed her of her intelligence or common sense, is desirous to take the Kumawu Chieftaincy issue to court in an event of the verdict going against her as may be declared at the Asanteman Council. This is the trait of a greedy person who may attempt to do whatever to have her way. God pities her lack of common sense. You can only take someone to court when the person is found to have denied you of your inalienable right, invaded unnecessarily your personal space through detrimental encroachment, stolen what belongs to you etc. Does the Kodua Stool going to some royal designated by God from the very true Kumawuman paramount royal family, the Ananangyas, constitute a court case? Does not the stool or throne belong to them in the first place? Are not the Kumawuhemaa and her "supposed" Ankaase royals who have rather robbed the Ananangyas and the Odumases of their birthright for many decades? She appears to have hardened her heart and this very ridiculous character of hers will lay bare her lack of intelligence, lack of wisdom and lack of common sense for the whole Kumawuman to see. The Ankaase family according to my historical research into the Kumawu chieftaincy was not even co-opted into the Kumawu royal paramountcy. Their forebear, Yaw Dabo, roguishly forced himself into the paramountcy with the assistance of his brother in-law, Nana Osei Yaw Akoto, the then Asantehene. Nana Osei Yaw Akoto was married to Okomfo Yaa Mansah, the sister of that traitorous Yaw Dabo, the son of "Ayo". Before Ayo was brought over to Kumawu, the Ananangyas and the Odumases, the great grandsons and great grand-daughters of Sene Fontom and Akosua Hemaa were already occupying the paramount throne of Kumawuman. They were practicing chieftainship over the Kumawuman. The Ankaase family never descended upon Kumawu as any warrior but a frail, though succulent damsel of humble family background.

God dares Kumawuhemaa to go to court over the Ananangyas and the Odumases repossessing what has always been their bonafide property but stolen from them by the Ankaase royals. She plans to set a historical precedence which is feasible only in Ghana where everything is possible by that typical Ghanaian attitude of "Ghana dee saa". This purports to be a scenario where the thief pursues the owner whose property the thief has stolen in court to claim ownership of it. Will that "Ghana dee saa" (that is how it goes or things work out in Ghana) tendency work in favour of the queen and her shameless Ankaase royals this time? They will be overly greedy and stupid to go to court to tell a Law court justice how the throne they stole from their owner is about to be repossessed by its original owner. What do they expect the Judge to tell them even in an event of the judge being equally stupid and greedy? The judge will simply tell them, "Get lost with your insanity", and then award cost and charges to them.

The only alternative left is for the queen to relinquish any claim to the throne. God is never the God of Lies but the Truth, and when He speaks, it will be done according as spoken. God has for a long time heard the cries of the suffering Kumawuman masses. Their moaning has come before Him. He has in consequence formed and chosen a person in whom He is well pleased to be enthroned as the next Kumawuhene. This person will be a liberator who will as well carry out essential developments commensurate with the needs of Kumawuman. He has been chosen from the true royal family, the Ananangyas. What then is the problem of Kumawuhemaa going to court to fight over spilled milk? Should I tell her, "Quick buck goes as quick as it comes" - "hwim hwim ade ko sro sro?" No, because the Ananangyas and the Odumases are not stealing anything from the Ankaases but simply repossessing what is their birthright but usurped from them.

In order not to spoil the occasion of the coronation of the incoming paramount chief from the Ananangya royal home, I will not wear my JOHN FOSU T-shirt upon the latest advice by some well-meaning friends in Maryland, the U.S. I am still waiting on the Merciful God for directions as my eventual application of an acquired Marshal Art tactics may inflict fatal injuries on that scumbag from Ankaase spewing threats at me. I may decide not to surface in Kumawu at all. All that God wanted me to do was to be His vessel to announce His intentions way ahead of time and that is exactly all that I have been doing. I can confidently claim that the purpose for which God called me to do for Kumawuman has been achieved regardless of the ongoing dilly-dallying. Hopefully, God may soon assign me to other duties while He nominates from within the Kumawuman progressives to continue with the task of securing everlasting freedom for Kumawuman from the rancorous traditional administration by the Ankaases.

If Kumawuhemaa was any genuine royal, she would have counteracted the "Asantehene's Great Oath" so invoked on her almost two and a half years ago. What was she waiting for all this while? She is now boasting same as does any "Akurase taa-man" that she will counteract the oath. God may love to see her go that path of sudden death as pertains under the UK's Anne Robinson's "The Weakest link" programme. It must be noted that "A chain is only as strong as its weakest link". The Ankaase royals are only as strong as their insignificant background history. They will capitulate within seconds of the case going to court. Their aim of court action is to seek to delay the hearing of the case which to them is a big plus and bonus in their kitty. They have always been manoeuvring to tilt the balance in their favour through protraction of the case. They have always been saying that the Ananangyas are poor and could not survive any irregular lengthening of the hearing of the case. They anticipate that in court, the judge and the lawyers can be bribed to keep on adjourning the case unnecessarily to the detriment of the poverty stricken Ananangyas/Odumases. If this is their intention, then God says they have failed in advance as He God will provide all the needs of the Ananangyas and the Odumases through His vessels and Good Samaritans.

The Ankaase royals who will never again rule Kumawuman are the weakest link. Goodbye!
