Akyem Kotoku Paramount Queen Mother, Nana Akua Asantewaa III has angrily expressed her revulsion and disgust against the unfair treatment some chiefs are entrenching against fellow – Queen mothers in the traditional area. The Queen mother, among many other concerns, has vowed to protect the queen mothers at all cost.
Addressing a team of media men at her residence in Akyem Oda, Nana Akua Asantewaa III lamented about the unjustify treatment given to queen mothers in the Kotoku traditional area.
She revealed that the Paramount Queen Mother is the sole power and authority to destool any queen mother per customs and traditions of the Akyem Kotoku Traditional Area. However, according to her, it’s disturbing how some elements of chiefs are frustrating some queen mothers claiming to have unlawfully destooled them.
She has therefore assured all the queen mothers in the Akyem Kotoku traditional area of her full support and has advised them to unite and withstand the unfair treatment from their chiefs so as to have their peace to reign.
She revealed that some group of people are claiming to have destooled Queen mother for Asene. “It is not true because such issue has not been laid before me as the paramount queen mother, therefore anyone who hears such pronouncement should treat it as a false rumor”, she noted.
Meanwhile some of the queen mothers in the Akyem Kotoku traditional area present at the press conference expressed their displeasure in the unfair treatment given to them by some Kotoku chiefs in their communities and have called for unity among the queen mothers to withstand any unjustifiable treatments.
