The Paramount Chief of Oguaa Traditional Area, Osabarima Kwesi Atta II has described the King of the Asante Kingdom, Otumfuo Osei Tutu II, as a true friend.
In his words, Otumfuo is a “genuine friend”.
“You are a discerning friend. I have realized this all this while we have been friends, but it has been affirmed even more today. You are a genuine friend. God bless you.”
In his speech at the Climax of the 60th Anniversary celebration of the Oguaa Fetu Festival and his 25th Anniversary celebration, he imagined what their bond could achieve and proposed they give it a shot.
