Who is Nana Ama Bonsu, the new Asantehemaa?

Nana Ama Bonsu, a respected businesswoman and member of the Manhyia Royal Family, has been nominated as the next Asantehemaa, marking the beginning of her journey to become the 15th Queen Mother of the Asante Kingdom.

The royal maidens, known as the ‘Mmodwoafo’, at the Queen’s palace serenaded Nana Ama Bonsu as she was outdoored to and welcomed by other members of the royal family and the public.

She will succeed the late Konadu Yiadom III, who passed away in August 2025, and assume one of the most revered and influential traditional offices in Ghana.
