THANK YOU! NOTE

significant milestone was achieved over the weekend during the Akwasidae celebration, but we would not have arrived at this point without your involvement.

You helped us get here; and when I think of ways to say thank you, so many thoughts run through my head. pic.twitter.com/IJC26k2v6S

They also came together for the Akwasidae festival which celebrates the reunion and the end of a 27 year feud between two royal households; the Ansaah Royal family and the Yaa Botwe Family.

His Royal Majesty Odeneho Kwafo III who succeeded Nana Kwafo Akoto II in 2011 was dragged to the Eastern Regional House of Chiefs by the Ansaah Family led by the Aberewatia Love Adwo Som.

For over two decades, both households fought over the process of choosing the Omahene with lawsuits dragged on to the National House of Chiefs and in May 2019 a judgment was given in favour of Odeneho Kwafo Akoto III.

The Aberewatia Love Adwo Som, head of the Ansaah Family openly announced that she had accepted the ruling by the National House of Chiefs and would no longer pursue the case.
Following that they pledged their full support and service to the current Paramount Chief His Royal Majesty Odeneho Kwafo Akoto III as the legitimate Omanhene for the area.

To proof that she was finally letting bygones be bygones, infront of everyone, she boldly gave hand shake greetings to reigning sovereigns the Omanhene Odeneho Kwafo Akoto III and Nana Afrakuma II, the Paramount Queen.

In his speech, Odeneho commended the Ansaah Royal Family for turning a new page and wanting to rebuilding and continue to retain peace and unity in the kingdom.
