Asantehene, Otumfuo Osei Tutu, has stated that his familial association with the running mate of the (NPP), Dr.
Matthew Opoku Prempeh (NAPO), does not mean his palace endorses him or his political party in the upcoming December 7 polls.
According to Otumfuo, his palace remains apolitical, and it cannot be said that his palace supports the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC) to win the election either. "NPP has selected my grandchild Matthew Opoku Prempeh as vice presidential candidate.
Indeed, he is my grandchild, but that doesn't mean I have sold out to the NPP or the NDC," Otumfuo said. "I can only render my blessings to you and urge you to work hard with all that you have… If God doesn't crown you, you won't win.
