The arrival of the Asantehene, Otumfuo Osei Tutu II, to pay a courtesy call his ailing colleague and friend, the Ga Mantse, Nii Amugi II, at his Alajo residence, spoiled a planned ?triumphant entry? by a 3-vehicle convoy of Said Sinare and his supporters into Alajo, amidst the honking of car horns, after the former MP had been granted bail by an Accra circuit court over an alleged electoral malfeasance.
Their entry into the suburb, from the main Caprice depot road, was characterized by honking of car horns, and unknown to the people who had lined the streets, and those who started emerging from their residences, to welcome the Asantehene, the man who was entering the area was not the Ashanti King, whom they had started hailing. When they soon discovered that their courtesies were misdirected after spotting Said in one of the cars, their respects turned into jeers and invectives.
An approaching police siren and the shouts for all to clear the road for the Asantehene to have free passage when he soon approached, in a convoy, through a traffic jam had built up, had the lined up crowd hailing the Ashanti king in a long bout of ecstasy. The Ashanti King was led into the suburb, and to the Ga Mantse Palace, by the Greater Accra regional minister, Sheikh I.C. Quaye, who is also the MP for the Central Ayawaso constituency.
