A group calling itself the Concerned Youth of Ashanti has strongly accused leading member of the New Patriotic Party, (NPP), Gabby Asare Otchere Darko and the Executive Secretary to the President Asante Bediatuo of speaking ill and undermining the Asantehene, Otumfuo Osei Tutu II.
Dr. Nana Agyenim Boateng, President of the Concerned Youth of Ashanti said all the negative things being said about the Asantehene by the two individuals have contributed to the Monarch’s anger.
Agyenim Boateng’s comment come after photos of some NPP executives kneeling before the revered Ashanti King to beg him at the Manhyia Palace emerged on Wednesday.
The executives including acting general secretary John Boadu and Ashanti regional Chairman Antwi Boasiako popularly called Chairman Wontumi are seen in the photos attempting to make peace with the Asantehene who was reported to have complained bitterly about certain actions by some NPP members against him.
Reports also indicate that some elements within the NPP are attempting to pitch the Okyehene against the Asantehene.
The incident has sparked reactions from youth groups under the Ashanti kingdom who have vowed to hit back at critics of Asantehene.
In an interview with Starr News, Agyenim Boateng said “a couple of years ago under the leadership of Akufo-Addo, his nephew and relatives started making some comments concerning the Asantehene and the Asantehene himself mentioned Gabby Asare Otchere Darko and Asante Bediatuo at the Manhyia Palace.
“Everything they are saying about the Asantehene, he is in Manhyia Palace but he has heard of it…so it is a warning and an advice to them.”
According to Agyenim Boateng, the two top NPP members claim that the Asantehene is involved in money laundering and tacitly supports the NDC.

NDC, DO YOU THINK YOU CAN WIN ELECTION WITH THIS"DIABOLIC" WAY? I HEARD THAT HOPE1ESS(KWASIAPANIN) OBIPEM ,THE NDC ASHANTI REGIONAL SECRETARY ON ONE NETWORK , AND I WAS SURPRISED ABOUT THE KIND WORDS HE WAS USING. ASHANTIS ARE NOT F00ULS TO ACCEPT ANY MEANINGLESS MESSAGE, SO IF NDC THINK THEY ARE GOING TO WIN ELECTION WITH THIS, THEN, THEY WILL BE ON COMFORT LEAD AGAIN.
No Asante cares about the personal issues of Asantehene. No Asante will vote for NDC because of the Asantehene accusations. This issue is like when someone trying to get attention and it is childish. What has the NPP executives who visited have to do with his accusation? I am 100% Asanteni but will never vote for NDC because of Asantehene's accusation of some people in government.
Who is Gyataba?Massa,stop doing cheap politics and find job to do.This is an old story from our king and what we can say is NANA nobody will disrespect you because your people Love Prez. Akuffo Addo and His wife.The gov't is in the mood of activating NABCO. Gabby and Bediatuo a word to the WISE IS E?
What a load of BULL sheeet from this so call Concerned Youth of Ashanti because who does not know about the activities of the activities of the this Ashantihene ; the truth is that Nana Addo will not get involve with the Ashantihene or the Akyem hene ; the man is too smart for such cheap politics by the Ashantihene ; how could the Ashantihene throw such piece of faeces from Mahyia Palace that Akyems are been turned against Ashantis besides most Akyems and Ashantis share the same cultural values and are inter related through marriages ; to me the Ashanti hene is just paranoid and guilty that he is known to be an NDC member and frineds with the the Mahama family who help him in his money laudering activities besides Nana Addo although part Akwapim and part Akyem was born in Acrra ;went to school in Accra lived all his life in Accra; married to a GA woman and has no interest in such tribalistic BULL SHEEEEEET !!!!!!! from this Ashantihene ; his aim is GHANA FIRST !!!!!!and not AKAN FIRST OR ASHANTI OR AKYEM FIRST ; THIS ASHANTIHENE SHOULD FULLING ASHANTIS WITH ARROGANT DISPLAY OF WEALTH WHILST HIS PEOPLE SUFFER ; this so calkled launders monies and buys properties outside Ghana whilst his people suffer on this streets of Kumasi ; how could a King sit in his kingdom whilst somebody take on the trouble to go and build a Maternity hospital for Ashantis -SHAME !!!!!!AND STOP YOUR TRIBAL POLITICS !!!!!GHANA DOES NOT NEED TRIBAL POLITICS !!!!
THIS IS NASTY FOR SO CALLED CYA TO MAKE THIS STATEMENTS. GABBY OKYERE DARKO AND ASANTE BEDIATUO HAS THE LIBERTY TO THINK WHATEVER THEY THEY WANT TO THINK ABOUT ASANTEHENE. THEY HAVE THE RIGHT AND LIBERTY TO HAVE THEIR OWN POLITICAL OPINION. MANY PEOPLE WHO LIVE IN KUMASI AND OTHERS WHO LIVED AT MANHYIA HAVE THEIR OWN POLITICAL OPINIONS DIFFERENT FROM ASANTEHENE. IT IS SENSELESSSS FOR ANYBODY TO THINK THAT EVERY ASANTE OR WHOEVER SHOULD THINKNK IN THE SAME WAY ASANTEHENE THINKS. ASANTEHENE HIMSELF DOES NOT EXPECT ANYBODY TO THINK AND ACT IN THE SAME WAY HE DOES. UNFORTUNATELY SOME PEOPLE AROUND HIM MISINFORM HIM AND MISCONSTRUE THE ACTIONS OF OTHERS TO HIM FOR THEIR OWN SELFISH INTEREST.
The Otumfuo has brought this shame to himself. The NDC money is not coming again for him to dance another Yentie Obia". When Kwesi Pratt insulted him on the Kofi Boakye tape where were you this group.
Na wei su y3 plan Benn?
Frankly speaking i am a GA from Osu if NDC thinks they can use this ***barred word*** propaganda to win the Ashantes in 2020 election then they have missed it cos we know them by the colour they wear. They fox with sheep clothings.
To every rumor, there's an iota of truth. Why kneel if some of the leading members' actions and utterances have not offended the great King? Who doesn't know or seen that the Akyem's King has been projecting himself to look like the great Otumfo?
why should OTUMFUOR listen to these ***barred word***
