Otumfuo is not dead – Manhyia

Otumfuo Manwerehene Nana Baffour Osei Brentuo Hyiaman V has denied rumours that the Royal Occupant of the Golden Stool Otumfuo Osei Tutu II has passed on

Debunking the speculations, Mawerehene, Nana Baffour Osei Brentuo Hyiaman V, who spoke exclusively to HELLO FM's King Edward at Manhyia said there is no iota of truth in the speculations and disclosed that currently Otumfuo Osei Tutu II is in South Africa and will be returning to the country next week.

He added that though they have heard about the rumour, they are patiently waiting for the arrival of His Royal Majesty before an official release will be issued to that effect.

Ghanaians should be calm and not be alarmed, His Royal Majesty is Healthy and will soon be returning to the country from his official visit to South Africa, he assured.

He, therefore, admonished people who have been posting such information on the various social networks about the alleged demise of Otumfuo Osei Tutu II to refrain from such an act.
