Daasebre Akuamoah Agyapong II, the Paramount Chief of Kwahu, has been destooled by the Kwahu Traditional Council, stripping him of all titles and chieftain privileges with immediate effect.
This decision is related to his alleged involvement in an extortion scheme and misconduct during his tenure as board chairman of the Agricultural Development Bank PLC (ADB).
According to members of the traditional council, the decision was necessary to rid the Kwahu state of any shame and to prevent any issues that could lead to violence.
The rites performed on Saturday, October 19, 2024, involved the elders of the traditional council pouring libation and offering prayers to their deities as part of the final procedure for the destoolment.
