Statement on the purported destoolment of the Paramount Queen of Manya Krobo

PRESS STATEMENT ISSUED BY THE KWAME NGUAH FAMILY OF MANYA KROBO STATE ON THE PURPORTED DESTOOLMENT OF THE PARAMOUNT QUEEN OF MANYA KROBO IN THE EASTERN REGION OF GHANA

Wednesday 27th May, 2020, Odumase-Krobo: The attention of the Kwame Nguah family of Manya Krobo has been drawn to a press statement purportedly issued by the Odumase Council announcing the destoolment of Nana Aplam II. The Royal Family, hereby states emphatically that:

1. The allegations being leveled against Nana Aplam II which constitute the bases for the purported destoolment are baseless and logically flawed.

2. No destoolment rituals have been performed for Nana Aplam II, as has been erroneously put out by the Odumase Council, and therefore, no one can claim that Nana Aplam II has been destooled.

3. Nana Aplam II remains the lawfully enstooled Paramount Queen of the Manya Krobo State.

The family hereby cautions the Odumase Council to desist from putting the good name of Manya Krobo, the family and in particular the name of Nana Aplam II into disrepute.

The general public is hereby advised to disregard the said allegations and press statement issued by the Odumase Council with all the contempt they deserve as Nana Aplam II remains the Paramount Queen of the Manya Krobo Traditional Area.
