The Overlord of the Asante Kingdom, Otumfuor Osei Tutu II, has arrived at Akyem Abuakwa where he is guest to the Okyenehene, Osagyefo Amoatia Oforipene.
The historic visit comes years after [1717] Opemsuo Osei Tutu led an Asante regiment into Akyem where he was subsequently killed while crossing the Pra River with his rear army.
The visit is expected to bring some real benefits to the subjects and areas of both leaders.
The visit, specifically, celebrates the 75th anniversary of Nana Ofori Atta who was the Omanhene of Akyem Abuakwa from 1912 to 1943.
Nana Ofori Atta was also the longest-serving African on the Legislative Assembly (then the de facto Parliament) of the Gold Coast”.
