The Asantehene has destooled Nana Adutwuwaa Bonin II, the Queen of Denyase Traditional Council in the Ashanti region.
The ruling was handed down during a meeting of the Asanteman Council on October 14, 2024, following allegations that Nana Adutwuwaa Bonin II had violated the sacred great oath of the Ashanti kingdom through treacherous invocation.
During the proceedings, Nana Adutwuwaa Bonin II appealed for clemency; however, the majority of the council members opposed her plea. "Nana, we cannot forgive her because the great oath must be paramount in all our dealings, so violating the terms of the oath is unacceptable," one of the chiefs said.
Goasomanhene added, "My biggest fear here is the oath that is involved, so pleading on her behalf will be difficult because the sacred oath is involved." "Otumfuo linguist, all the chiefs have said that they cannot work with her, so she must go," another affirmed.
