Asantehene Otumfuo Osei Tutu II is scheduled for a public lecture on Asante Culture in July at the British Museum in the United Kingdom (UK).
This is part of an evolving cooperation in international cultures, mutual technical and business development, said a statement released by Mr. Ivor Agyeman-Duah, the representative of Manhyia Palace in the negotiation for the return of stolen Asante artefacts during the Sagrenti War.
It will mark the King’s first international lecture this year.
“The Asantehene would also give a major public lecture on Asante Culture and Heritage- Past and Present on the platform of the BM in London in July 2024.”
Introducing the event would be the President of the American Academy of Arts and Letters, Mr Kwame Anthony Appiah who is world leading Anglo-Ghanaian philosopher of New York University and the Laurance S. Rockefeller Emeritus University Professor of Philosophy at Princeton University.
The date for the lecture is yet to be communicated.
