The young Ghanaian boy who welcomed Otumfuo Osei Tutu II to Cape Coast with a spectacular flag dance has opened up about his encounter with the revered king.
Chief Justice, as he’s popularly known, stated in an interview that his meeting with Otumfuo was one of the best experiences he’d ever had.
In the video, he indicated that the Asantehene was impressed with his performance and instantly made him his friend.
He noted that at some point, the Chief of Oguaa, Osaberima Kwesi Atta, instructed him and his dad to go home since it was getting late, but Otumfuo wanted him to stay, so he stayed with him.
Additionally, he noted that Otumfuo was very friendly, and his affable nature prompted him to hand over his flag to the revered king when he was stepping down to greet an older friend.
