At the Akyem Abuakwa State Council meeting over the weekend at Kyebi, the Okyenhene noted that similar documents have been in circulation since the era of J.B. Danquah and recently popped up once again in 2016, when Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo was running for the presidency.
He said the latest iteration of the document, Agyapadie, was released in 2020 following the Agyapa scandal.
Okyenhene says Agyapadie is fuelling hatred
Per My Joy Online, he said the document was false and 'designed to fan hatred' between Okyeman and Asanteman.
According to the Okyenhene, Okyeman and Ofori Panin Fie do not need President Akufo-Addo's support to be great.
He said Okyeman had been great long before Akufo-Addo and would continue to be great long after him.
He noted that neither the state nor the president has done anything extraordinary to suggest that it is elevating the level of Okyeman or the Ofori Panin Fie above others.
He also urged all Akyem people to be good representatives of the Akyem State and contribute significantly to its development.
Okyenhene proposes sanctions for irresponsible parents
Earlier, Okyenhene Osagyefuo Amoatia Ofori Panin proposed sanctions for irresponsible parents, advocating for the seizure of their salaries.
Speaking at the Grand Ohum Durbar, the Okyenhene called out irresponsible parents, stating that such behaviour should not be tolerated in society.
In his view, freezing the salaries of such parents and transferring them to their wards would deter other irresponsible parents.
He also called on the government to implement a law allowing freezing the salaries of such parents and transferring them to their children.
