Notable among them were Akrobeto, Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo, Mahamudu Bawumia, Cheddar, and Faustina Elikplim Akurugu.

Earlier, YEN.com.gh also reported that the New Patriotic Party (NPP) stalwart and former MP, Sarah Adwoa Safo, had been honoured by the family while her late innovator father was still alive.

This came after she was made the head of the Kantanka family, known in local parlance as the Abusuapanin, at a colourful ceremony. She was also made the leader of the Kristo Asafo Church.
