The Office of the Paramount Chief of the Kwahu Traditional Area, Daasebre Akuamoah Agyepong II, has challenged his supposed destoolment as contained in a viral video.
Following the circulation of a video where some elders are seen performing rites to strip Daasebre Akuamoah Agyepong II of his titles and chieftain privileges, the Office of the Kwahuhene said the act was not only false but also contravened legal standards and Kwahu customs. "The office of the Omanhene of the Kwahu Traditional Area wishes to clarify that Kwahuhene, Daasebre Akuamoah Agyapong II, has not been destooled.
Recent video footage claiming to depict a destoolment procedure is not only false but also contravenes both legal standards and Kwahu customs.
The dissemination of this misleading video on social media and selected WhatsApp group pages, particularly among known politicians, constitutes an attack on the rich heritage and traditions of Kwahu," a statement by the Office of the Kwahuhene dated Saturday, October 20, 2024, noted.
