Wobere papa
You are great man and a historian.
Mr historian wabon
Asantehene shall remain supreme whether you like it or not
This is a very clear explanation of Otumfuo’s paramount chief status.Thank you Mr Agyeman !
I thought he mentioned 3 positions of Otumfuor. You could only remember the paramount chief status.
Please is he on any social media platform? I want to follow him
WHAT I KNOW IS , HE IS OUR KING NO MATTER WHAT CONSTITUTION, STATED, POLITICIANS NORMALLY DO WHAT WILL FAVOUR THEM
He is the King of Asante not a King of Ghana ok
@@agyemangkwadwo5434 NO ONE SAID HE IS YOUR KING, I AM ASANTE , DON"T JUST COME HERE AND ARGUE
He said he's our King(Asantes).....I take orders from Santehene not the president. Asante bɛkɔso ayɛ oman.@agyemangkwadwo5434
Confusion galore
Those who are criticizing the historian need an in-depth knowledge of English language.The historian is right.
Alandu ❤❤❤
Owura mu owura, Kwadwo Agyemang, no kware mu no kware.
Mr historian don't distort the fact Asantehene remains the greatest
Otanhunu arakwa otumfou is bigger ten times than Agyeman Badu
❤❤❤
First of all, you need to upload the full video.
Secondly, Mr Agyemang is right. He mentioned Otumfuor has got 3 positions; Kumasihene (paramount chief of Kumasi), president of the Ashanti region house of chiefs, and then the overlord of Asanteman.
The chieftaincy act categorised Otumfuor and the paramount chiefs to state that Otumfuor is part of the paramount chiefs, but he is special. That's why it never mentioned only paramount chiefs in that categorised. Otumfuor being special according to that category means he has other roles.
Please don't confuse us Asantehene is not a paramount chief but he is a king and not a paramount chief that's why he have the power to elevate a chief into a paramount.
The first part is on the page check it
How can you call yourself a “learner person” and use the word Kumasihene? Where did he get that from? Recent Kumasi jurisdiction is far bigger than the old “Kwaamang State”
Tanoso, etc. are all part of Kumasi. So is not only one paramount chief who is in charge of the entire City.
Asantehene, Otomfuo, is the King of the entire Asante Kingdom.
He does not even understand the meaning of federalism. When I was listening to him on Oheneba media.
In the US almost 10-37 percent of tax goes to the federal government. In Nigeria, almost 80 percent goes to the federal government.
So it doesn’t mean in the federal system every State owns everything they have to themselves.
I am living in New York State but if I look at my paystub the federal tax is way bigger than the State tax.
WHY IT DIDN"T SAY ( a) PARAMOUNTCHIEFS , BUT IT ASANTEHENE AND THE PARAMOUNTCHIEFS, ITS LIKE FATHER AND THE SONS
You hit the nail right on the head. For the L.I. to make a distinction between Asantehene and paramount chiefs means the L.I. does not categorize the Asantehene as a paramount chief.
Moreover, this 2008 L.I. is an amendment of the 1971 Chieftaincy Act (I stand to be corrected if there’s a later version).
In the 1971 Chieftaincy Act, it categorizes chiefs as follows:
A. Asantehene
B. Paramount Chiefs
C. Paramount Chiefs under Asantehene…
The 2008 amendment brought paramount chiefs serving the Golden Stool at par with all paramount chiefs in the country.
If the guest says, to his knowledge, the 2008 Act categorizes Otumfour as a paramount chief, does it mean that Mamponghene, Juabenhene, Adansihene, Essumenyahene, etc. are all at par with their Overlord?
If the 2008 Act intended to categorize the Asantehene as a paramount chief, it would have referred to Otumfour as Kumasehene. In this case, it would have been obvious that the Otumfour is a paramount chief.
Mr.Afodwo ,Asantehene is higher than all chiefs in the Asante kingdom.He is the president of Asante regional House of Chiefs.The House of Chiefs National or Regional is composed of Chiefs but it is only paramount chiefs that are elected to the presidency so if Asantehene is not a paramount chief why does he preside the Ashanti Regional House of Chiefs?Besides,Kumasi is a Traditional Area with a Traditional Council headed by a president Mr.Afodwo my question is who is the paramount chief or Omanhene if the Kumasi Traditional Area?Your answer will settle the case.Thanks
@@agyemangkwadwo5434 ASAFO , BANTAMA , TAFO, THEY ARE ALL OMANHENE
What the historian is saying is his opinion.If you think your opinion is better than his you can also call the media to interview you.ok?he is neither an Asante nor a Bono nationalist.
The Bono historian is confused due to his bias that has blinded him from using his cognitive knowledge to analysed the act. The lady did well by asking him which paramount chief has other paramount chiefs under him and he responded non. That should have even settled it but he continued to mixed kumasi hene which is (paramount chief) to Asante Hene which is a (king position). He said the Asante's have a try-partied system of governance which are
1:The kumasi Hene which is a paramount chief position created by the British in which no Asante will call Otumfour as Kumasi Chief because it is an artificial position which does not exists in the mind of any Asante, it only exist in document written by the British.
2: The Asante regional House of Chief, created by Kwame Nkruma for political reason but also couldn't hide the fact so Nkrumah Made the Asante Hene a perpetual or eternal leader because he knew that in Asante there is nothing like Kumasi Cheif creatd by the British so He couldn't just add king to Chiefs to be voted for and there is no position in the Asante regional house of chiefs called kumasi hene.
3: He is also the leader (king) of the Asanteman Council which comprises Chiefs beyond the Ashante Region to Ahafo to Bono created by the people themselves (confederation)and He is the only King that upgrade Chief to paramount Chief in Ghana. This power could have even tickled your mind that Asante Hene is not a paramount chief.
4:The constitution says type of traditional leaders in ghana and ist read: The Asante Hene and paramount chiefs and you are equating the word ''and'' to mean equal or the same, ahhba Historian. The "And" word used is to differentiate their position there because the framers of the constitution knew that the position or the rancks are not the same.
Lastly, why should it even cross your mind to call the Asante Hene which was created the people themself as Kumasi Chief which was created by Colonial British surprise it power. In the perpose of arguement let me accepte without admitting to your position of Asante Hene being a Kumasi Chief. If a young man have been able to complish through the educational ladder of having,
1: first degree,
2:masters,
3:doctorate,
4:PHD (professor)
Will you address that person as a Professor or a Doctor or a graduate, your answer will solve your dilemma.
Nice
Another example: If I say, (A) The President and Ministers can use the dining room on the right.
(B) the deputy ministers and the Regional Chief Executives can use the dining room on the left. Does it mean the President and Ministers are the same?
If you read the US Constitution, so many sections group the president and governors together to make statements. But it always states the President and the governors.
You see in this world if you know the truth but you choose to act differently, you look very low.
This man, should be watched closely!!!
My man, we are in a nation state.Not a monarchical state, so it will be wrong for you to interpret the Chieftaincy Act 759 Act 58 to mean Asantehene is not a paramount chief but a king of Ghana.When you do that then you justify the position of those who claim that the Act is biase in favour of Asantehene.
We are not in the USA please your analogy is wrong here.Remember the Act was passed in 2008 Kufour time, so think twice my man.
@agyemangkwadwo5434.some truth are hard to say but can't be ommitted that is why the constitution couldn't name him as paramount but differentiate him from the paramount chiefs and also as a young man I will advice you to observe action more than words written. Ask yourself some questions.
1:why every president of Ghana respect him more and put more regard on his name and they go when he calls.
2:why most diplomat pay him a visit when they arrive in Ghana.
3:why most CEO of government companies and ministers pays him a visit when they get that positions.
4:why he can intervene for Ghana to get a deal with the IMF, why he is the only king in Ghana tobe called on to talk at the UN(United nations) meanwhile Asante is not a nation as you understand it.
These are few questions to ask yourself and answer it right.
The fact that Asantehene is held in high esteem doesn't make him a king over others per the constitution of ghana.If that is your interpretation of the Act, then you are justifying the position of those who are campaigning for amendment of the clause and it will be done so in future to make the distinction clear.Granted that the members of Parliament under quiet frame the clause that way as a result of the unique position of Asantehene,do you have to blow your horns to invite the anger of Ghanaians on you Asante people or Asantehene?Small things are big in small minds.
@@agyemangkwadwo5434 My friend, Ghana is not a “Nation State” Ghana is a Unitary State. Get that right ok! And I never stated that Otumfuo is the King of Ghana. And no Asante had ever said that. We always choose our words carefully. We always said Otumfuo is the KING OF ASANTE KINGDOM (Asantehene)
It is just jealousy in you that is fighting your conscience.
Stop your nonsense you don't know what you are talking about
The United States President and the State governors are the only bodies who can have veto power.
It means the President is different from the rest.
This is just a sample.
The Constitution of Ghana can just state paramount chiefs but once it's stated that "Asantehene and the paramount chiefs, it means the Asantehene is different and higher than the rest of them.
Note: Asantehene is not a King in only the Kwaamang or Ashanti region but the entire Asante kingdom.
All of his interpretations do not make sense.
Before he used to state facts but of late, maybe, Dormaahene has called him and spoken some words in his ear. I listened to him on Oheneba media recently and he was talking nonsense.
WATCH HIM!!!
