Family dissociate itself from destoolment

Kumasi, July 2, GNA - Members of the Nana Yurowaa's Royal Gate to the Tafo Agona Royal Family have dissociate themselves from the purported destoolment of Opanin Kwaku Buor as the Abusuapanin of the Royal Family.

In a statemet issued in Kumasi on Monday, on behalf of the Family by Opanin Kwadwo Pippim, in reaction to the alleged destoolment of the Abusuapanin by some of the Royal Gates, Nana Yurowaa's Gate, said they still considered Opanin Kwaku Buor as the true Abusuapanin of the Royal Agona Family of Tafo.

It said the Abusuapanin was the one who knew members of his family and those who qualified and deserved to be buried in the royal mausoleum.

The statement, therefore, appealed to the public to treat the said destoolment with the contempt it deserved.
