The Chief of Breman in the Suame Constituency in Kumasi, Baffuor Kotei Kutin Sraman, has caused a stir by offering special prayers at a cemetery for the flag bearer of the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC), ex-President John Dramani Mahama.
The traditional leader particularly prayed to the ancestors of Breman, which is one of the known traditional towns in Asanteman, to help Mr. Mahama to win the 2020 polls.
His weird behaviour of deciding to offer special prayers for the NDC flag bearer at a cemetery is reported to have incurred the wrath of his people.
Scores of the youth at Breman are reported to have become extremely angry over the bizarre actions of their chief so they have vowed to report him to the Asantehene, Otumfuo Osei Tutu II.
NDC Birthday
According to sources, the NDC Parliamentary Candidate for Suame, Francis Dodovi, on Thursday June 10, 2020 visited the Bremanhene at his palace at Breman in the morning.
That fateful day marked the 28th anniversary of the formation of the NDC; therefore, Dodovi had reportedly visited the traditional leader to solicit for his prayers for the progress of the party.
Cemetery Prayers
Unexpectedly, instead of praying for Dodovi in his palace, the Breman chief rather suggested that Dodovi and his supporters should follow him to the Breman Cemetery for special prayers.
Baffuor Kutin Sraman, who was holding schnapps, reportedly prayed to his ancestors to stand behind Mr. Mahama so that he emerges victorious in the upcoming elections.
According to the Bremanhene, Ghana experienced massive transformation when Mr. Mahama was President for a term; therefore, the NDC leader deserves another term to do more.
Baffuor Kutin Sraman took his time to recount the developmental projects of Mr. Mahama and stressed the need for the Breman gods and ancestors to help him win the polls.
Dodovi Grateful
When DAILY GUIDE interviewed Dodovi on phone, he confirmed that the Bremanhene indeed prayed for Mr. Mahama at the cemetery and said he was grateful to the chief.
According to him, indeed Ghana experienced massive transformation when Mr. Mahama was in political office; therefore, the chief had not erred for praying for the NDC flag bearer to win the polls.
Angry Youth
In a related development, a section of the youth at Breman are said to be brimming with rage after it emerged that their chief had decided to pray at a cemetery for the NDC leader to win the next elections.
They said they have no qualms about their chief’s decision to offer his unflinching support for Mr. Mahama, explaining that their only worry is the chief’s decision to offer the prayers at the cemetery.
The Breman youth said they would report their chief to the Overlord of Asanteman, Otumfuo Osei Tutu II, to punish him.
“It is not in good taste for our chief to march NDC members to our cemetery for special prayers for Mr. Mahama to win the polls so we shall report him to the Asantehene,” they said.
The Asante Kingdom’s royal mausoleum is located at Breman so Otumfuo periodically visits the town. The youth have said they will lodge their complaint to Otumfuo anytime he visits Breman.

WHAT GOOD CAN A PRAYER IN THE CEMETERY SERVE? IT SYMBOLIZES THE DEATH OF MAHAMA CAMPAIGN TO BECOME PRESIDENT.
Haha npp and their supporters if something does not go for them is a crime but if it goes for dem is ok hypocrisy whether he is a known ndc member or not what he did has nothing to do with anybody he offered to pray for Mr mahama come to think of it if he prayed for nana would u guys come out and talk rubbishhhh like how some of you are describing him ultimately he spoke de truth and truth hurt indeed Mr mahama will surely emerge after December 7 Mark it on your walls all npp guys you will cry and cry nobody cares
Don't worry yourselves,this man has been a NDC member.I say on authority that he contested to be a MP on the ticket of the party for Bantama constituency once upon a time.And note he got almost zero ballots.
How absurd. You go to a chief asking him to pour libation so that you will win elections. The chief knows that your quest is impossible, but since he does not want to reject you outright, he goes to pour libation at the cemetery. This symbolises that your request is dead on arrival.
Eben asem mpo nyi NDC? Adze pe kro wo hwehwe ntsi aa wo ko amuse3 won sa be ka paa ma wo brodo. Akohwefo manbofo
They sad thing is that they did not observe covid-19 proocols. They all need to be tested. Who knows one or two might have the disease and might have infected the others because, in the picture, most of the were not wearing mask and there was no social distancing as well. One thing the chief must know is that ghost doesn't exist so how are they going to respond to his plea? In fact, for lack of knowledge my people perish ampa!!
This chief has shown gross disrespect yo Sir Otumfuo Osei Agyeman Prempeh who donated thousands of pound sterlings to the formation ofbthe UP and that this chief must be destooled. He doesn't deserve to serve the people of Suame ! He has brought dishonour and disgrace to that stool. The money he collected is a stolen money and he must be punished together with mahama ! Some chiefs are f00*00ls in Ghana who don't deserve to be on their stool. Corrupt chiefs who live on their stomach and lie through their teeth will suffer he should thank his stars Sir Otumfuo Osei Agyeman is no more such idi*ots wouldnt even be allowed to be chiefs in his jurisdiction. Dodovi ob3wi potoooo !
