The Asantehene, Otumfuo Osei Tutu II, also travelled to Accra on Saturday, June 21, 2025, to attend the graduation of his son.

Otumfuo's son speaks at graduation

Nana Kwame Kyeretwie, moments before the graduation ceremony, opened up in a rare interview about how he was feeling.

Dressed in a graduation gown, the youngest son of the Asante King admitted that he had mixed feelings about the whole event, especially considering that his parents were present to cheer him on.

He confessed that he felt both great and anxious at the same time.

The interviewer then urged him to muster courage, adding that the event would be a success.

A video making the rounds proves that a cake-cutting ceremony was held to celebrate the academic achievement of Nana Kwame after completing high school.

The two-tier cake, coloured blue, white, and gold, had the inscription: ‘Prince Nana Kwame K. Osei-Tutu’.

Looking visibly cheerful, Nana Kwame Kyeretwie first took a picture with his father, mother, and siblings.

He later took a photo with his elder sister, Nana Afia Kobi, who had earlier opened up and said she was proud of her brother.

Otumfuo's son admitted to a top US university

It added that he would be studying astronomy, a programme no Ghanaian university currently offers.

At the time of writing this report, the video had racked up over 2,000 likes and 70 comments.

Ghanaians congratulate Otumfuo’s Son

Social media users who took to the comments section of the video congratulated the son of the king for his accomplishment.

AJ Amoah stated:

"Not my uncle coming to visit me in school with a bicycle and told my friends that they should tell me Atta Sakle (bicycle) is looking for me."

Reigns wrote:

"I’m a Fante, but the weight this man carries as a king is underrated. I think Ghana should have him as the overall king and then have a prime minister like the UK."

"I remember one of his daughters graduated at Tema International School."

@adomakobright51 commented:

"I’m happy for Lady Julia. Blessings have fallen upon you."
