The queen mother, who bought a Kantanka Onantefo in 2017, has added the Kantanka Obrempong pickup truck to her collection.
In a video shared by Kwadwo Safo Studios, she explained that her decision to return to the brand was influenced by the positive experience she had with her first Kantanka vehicle.
Queen mother praised Kantanka cars
Ohemaa Anima II described Kantanka cars as strong, durable and comfortable, noting that these qualities convinced her to purchase another model from the company.
She said:
“I will plead with the government of Ghana to patronise Kantanka cars because they are very durable and strong. The car also makes you very comfortable when using it. This is my second time buying a Kantanka car.”
The queen mother added that her latest purchase was not likely to be her last. According to her, she has resolved to buy any new Kantanka model that attracts her interest in the future.
Her remarks reflected her confidence in the locally assembled vehicles and her desire to encourage broader support for Ghanaian businesses.
She also appealed to the government and other state institutions to consider adding Kantanka vehicles to their fleets. Such patronage, she suggested, could strengthen the local automobile industry and encourage the company to expand its operations.
Features of the Kantanka Obrempong
The Kantanka Obrempong is a four-door, five-seater double-cab pickup designed for both regular road use and challenging terrain.
According to the manufacturer’s official specifications, the vehicle comes with an eight-speed automatic transmission and selectable four-wheel drive, including 2H, 4H and 4L settings.
