Correspondence from Eastern Region:

The Okuapehene, Oseeadeyo Kwasi Akuffo II, has paid a royal courtesy call on the Okyenhene, Osaagyefuo Amoatia Ofori Panin on Tuesday, May 12, 2020.

The courtesy call is the first official working visit of the Okuapehene after his installation last week.

A brief history indicates that the Ofori Panin stool has blood relations with the Ofori Kuma stool of Akuapem of which the former is the senior stool and the latter a junior stool.

Thus, the Okyenhene is regarded as the traditional uncle of the Okuapehene.

The purpose of the Okuapehene's visit, therefore, is to officially present himself, as Ofori Kuma, to his traditional uncle, the Ofori Panin.

The meeting is also to discuss matters of importance.
