Founder of the Ajagurajah movement, Bishop Kwabena Asiamah, has defined the ultimate powers the Asantehene, Otumfuo Osei Tutu II possesses.
According to him, the Ashanti King has greater powers than people perceive.
Highlighting the Otumfuo’s prowess, Ajagurajah explained that he is the only one to whom all the spirits within the Ashanti Kingdom including; witches, river deities, fetish priests, and so on, bow.
This, according to him, is because the Asantehene is a god and not a mere mortal as people think.
He said he was the most powerful king in Ghana as a result of his utmost reverence for tradition.
Ajagurajah also expressed that although the Asantehene is a traditional leader, he upholds the beliefs of the other institutions he belongs to.
This, he said, is evident in the fact that the Anglican Archbishop is the only one the Otumfuo bows to.
“Asantehene is the most powerful king in Ghana. Let’s leave wealth and the paramountcy around him aside. Do you know why he is so powerful? He doesn’t joke with tradition. The Asantehene, His Royal Majesty Otumfuo Osei Tutu is an Anglican, a freemason and also a traditional leader. And the Anglican Archbishop is the only one Otumfuo kneels to. All the witches, river deities, fetish priests, in fact, every spirit within the Ashanti Kingdom bow to him. Every spirit recognizes the Asantehene as their one and true king,” he stated while discussing the topic of spirituality on Time FM.
