Nana, an individual who identifies as a member of the Accra Richest Men, has praised the leadership qualities of Asantehene Otumfuo Osei Tutu II, which have garnered respect from prominent individuals.
He mentioned that during a durbar hosted by the Ga Mantse, Nii Tackie Teiko Tsuru II, in honour of the Asantehene, affluent club members had to endure a lengthy wait before they could pay their respects to the King of the Ashanti Kingdom.
The member shared that the Accra Richest Men Club members stood in line for two hours out of deep respect for Otumfuo, a gesture they wouldn't have extended to a president or anyone else.
“Only Otumfuo could make the wealthiest men in Accra wait on the road for an hour and a half; not even the president could command such reverence. We lined up and waited for two hours just to greet Otumfuo. If it were the president, we would have left long ago. Only Otumfuo can inspire such respect,” Nana stated.
Meanwhile, Accra was brought to a standstill on Sunday, June 9, 2024, as Asantehene Otumfuo Osei Tutu II visited the Ga State at the invitation of Ga Mantse Nii Tackie Teiko Tsuru II.
Prominent personalities from across the country were present at the occasion to pay homage to the Asantehene for making a historic visit to the Ga state.
The owner of the Despite Media Group and Companies, Dr. Osei Kwame Despite, and his associate, Dr. Ernest Ofori Sarpong, were among the dignitaries who paid their respects to both the Asantehene and the Ga Mantse during the durbar.
