Akrobeto was one of the prominent personalities who graced the colourful ceremony and did not take long to get noticed.

Upon arrival, Akrobeto bowed before Otumfuo, his wife Lady Julia, and other dignitaries on the dais before joining Kwame Adinkra, the MC, for a chat.

Adinkra asked Akrobeto a few questions in English and the UTV Real News presenter responded. While talking about the capacity of the jubilee hall, Akrobeto struggled to speak English so he had to mix it with Twi.

His statement got many people present, including Otumfuo bursting into laughter. After making them laugh, Akrobeto bowed before the Asantehene again and left.

He was later seen inside the newly commissioned hall with others and showering massive praise on Otumfuo.
