The head of the Royal Abrade Akua Korang lineage of Asamankese in the Eastern region has petitioned the Inspector General of Police (IGP), Dr. George Akuffo Dampare, to intervene and engage the rightful parties involved in the Asamankese chieftaincy dispute to prevent further clashes in the coming days.
The Royal Abrade Akua Korang lineage of the Abrade family indicated that it rightfully enstooled and inaugurated a true Royal as the Chief of Asamankese on 20th December, 2021, and since then, the Royal family has not been challenged by the Queen mother nor her son, Kwesi Obeng, who initially styled himself as Osaabarima Adu Darko III .
But emerging reports say that the Queen mother and her son, Kwesi Obeng are planning to celebrate an unknown festival on 3rd September 2022, which is strange to the Royal Akua Korang lineage of the Abrade family of Asamankese.
“We are therefore calling on you IGP to intervene to prevent and stop such an event because the Royal family will l not be pleased and watch such an uncustomary activity to happen on our land. We are calling for peace, we are law abiding citizens and that is the reason why we have always engaged, involved and informed the security services in all our activities and deliberations since the year 2014 when the impasse began,” the petition stated.
They further added that on countless occasions, the Queen mother and her son have violated court injunction and order yet they are walking freely on the principal streets of Asamankese.
