Two Ghanaian female TV personalities have sparked backlash and also invoked the anger of many, especially Ashantis, following some remarks they recently made about the Asantehene Otumfuo Osei Tutu II.
During Biribi Gyegye Wo on Onua TV, Afia Pokua and Mona Gucci criticised Otumfuo for staying silent while some of his citizens launched verbal attacks on the Dormaa people and their Chief, Nana Agyemang Badu I.
Afia Pokua, baffled by this, called out Otumfuo for his silence and asked him to call his people to order.
While calling for peace, she urged also Ashantis to 'humble themselves'.
