We’ve not enstooled any Chinese as Nkosuohene – Abetifi Chiefs speaks
The chiefs of Abetifi, capital of Kwahu East district in the Eastern Region have trashed reports suggesting that a Chinese national has been enstooled as Nkosuohene.
The Chiefs in a press briefing at the Abetifi palace stated that such claims were false, adding that, there was no such an enstoolment by the palace.
Nana Nyaakum Panyin III, Dwanetoafohene of Kwahu Abetifi, who addressed the press, said “no Chinese has been enstooled as Development Chief, Nkosuohene, and as of now Abetifi does not have any Nkosuohene.”
He said on September 5, 2020, they received news of an enstoolment of a Chinese investor at Aframso, a village in the Afraim Plains, as a development chief in which they summoned the Odikro of the area for interrogation since it was abhorrent to the culture and tradition of Kwahu to carry anyone shoulder high without the permission of the palace.
He said after the summons, Akyemfour Nana Asiedu, Abetifihene and his elders annulled the said enstoolment since laid down procedures were not followed.
Meanwhile, the said Chinese national, Sun Qiang, yesterday rejected his chieftaincy title. Sun Qiang rejected the title of Nkosuohene following the anger expressed towards the chiefs and people of Kwahu Abetifi by some persons who felt aggrieved by his enstoolment.
