Kumawuhemaa Snubs Asantehene's Directives on Kumawu Chieftaincy Resolution.

"Procrastination is the thief of time" and "Time and tide wait for no man", so the old wise men able to discern the times and seasons say. Better still, " Today is tomorrow's yesterday, so do not put to tomorrow what you can do today, for tomorrow may be too late for what you can do today" Does this not go to conclude how hurtful and regrettable it is to always say, "Had I known", but which is always at last? Do we often not hear people regrettably say, "If I knew things were going to happen this way I would have acted differently?" Whenever one is faced with options, or, the choices of acting, hesitation, and not acting, and the wrong decision is made based on unreasonableness, then we become confronted with that painful situation of "had I known" I am beginning to have reservations about the Ananangyas/Odumases' lukewarm, foot-dragging attitude to believing God's promise to them. God has revealed through numerous instances as published in my write-ups that He has given back to them their birthright throne which was cunningly stolen from them by the "supposed" Ankaase royals. But here we are having the Ananangyas/Odumases as stagnant as never before. They are mired in that false hope that God who has declared them the true occupants of the throne will Himself descend from the Higher firmaments to hand over the throne to them on a silver platter. They expect God to come down from the Heavens, hold the hand of His Chosen one as copiously written about, and sit his buttocks down the throne. God will never physically do that. God has completed His work of giving the throne to the Ananangyas/Odumases the very moment I wrote announcing it. It is up to them to take it going by God's decision in faith, or, leave it holding on to their doubts as the biblical doubting Thomas.

Throughout the Bible and in real life situations, whenever God does something positive in the life of anyone, He expects that person to play a minor practical but positive role before the full realisation of whatever is intended. Sitting on your lap twirling the finger may not let you see the glory of God. Few examples may be cited to buttress my contention.

Hebrews 11:30 - "By faith the walls of Jericho fell down, after they were compassed about seven days". Joshua 6: Summary: Joshua obeyed God at Jericho to begin the Israelite conquest of Canaan. God gave the battle plan and the Israelites acted in faith. Goliath was a giant soldier from Gath in ancient Palestine, according to a famous story in the biblical book 1 Samuel. The 17th chapter describes an armed clash between the Philistines, led by Goliath, and the army of Israel. Despite Goliath's intimidating size, the unlikely Judean boy-hero David meets him on the field of battle. David slings a fatal stone that hits the giant between the eyes and fells him. David beheads the fallen Goliath, Israel wins in a rout and David goes on to become king.

Genesis 22:1-2, R.S.V. "After these things God tested Abraham, and said to him, 'Abraham!' And he said, 'Here am I.' He said, 'Take your son, your only son Isaac, whom you love, and go to the land of Moriah, and offer him there as a burnt offering upon one of the mountains of which I shall tell you'."

"By faith Abraham, when he was tested, offered up Isaac, and he who had received the promises was ready to offer up his only son ..." (Hebrews 11:17, R.S.V.).

"Was not Abraham our father justified by works, when he offered up his son Isaac upon the altar?" (James 2:21, R.S.V.).

If in the cited instances those mentioned had not got off their arse to act positively as stated above, they would never have succeeded and also never would they have seen the manifestation of the glory of God. What will you be doing from today forward? Trust God, the Maker of Heaven and earth. He has given your stolen throne back to you. Gird up your loins; rise up like men to take it.

Kumawuhemaa as insatiably greedy, inherently selfish, viperously and permanently exhibiting acts inimical to the development of Kumawuman will put up a "do or die" or "do and die" fight to retain the throne. She has got herself into a distasteful tight corner out of her own bastardized vicious intentions. How long will you, the true royals sit, watch, and do nothing while she holds you in limbo? Is it worth folding your arms around the chest, lost in thoughts as to what to do next? Is it worth sitting on your arse, picking your nose and scratching your head as though one lost in Wonderland without any further hope but submerged in the sea of uncertainties? Come on men!

God has revealed to me that the chief of Tikrom, a town near Fomesua, has of late joined that group of chiefs without integrity but prominently lackadaisical, corrupt and shameless, to ill-advice Kumawuhemaa. They are egging her on to resist God's command to her to relinquish her stubborn claim on the throne. She has spent huge sums of money courting the support of all these faceless numerous chiefs. Try as they do, they will never live to enjoy a pesewa from the Kumawuman funds. Whatever monetary promise or assurance that have been given to them by Kumawuhemaa in the event of they assisting her to successfully install her favourite as the chief of Kumawu will never materialise. The one thing I am sure they could get in return for any services rendered will be offers of sex. Does she hesitate when it comes to parting her two thighs to whomever she sure hopes to get help from? Truly, her future prospects are situated in-between her legs and she is optimizing concentration on making some dubious men without probity happy. God will never allow these charlatan chiefs to live their shameless extravagant lives at the expense of the suffering Kumawuman citizens. I will mention all those involved as and when God allows me to. I will take the fight to their very doorsteps.

I wanted to do the biblical Jonah by refusing to disseminate through publication any further revelations by God, highly annoyed as I am at the seemingly effortless behaviour of the Ananangyas/Odumases. But God tells me I have not yet finished my job so any attempt to backtrack will not stick. In the light of this, I will fight harder than ever seen with me before. This second phase of my fight will be as a French man will say, "c'est la que Ça passe ou Ça casse" (that is either it passes or it breaks).

Kumawuhemaa until today goes about confiding boastfully in her close associates that Asantehene is never ready to pronounce any adverse ruling against her. She says all his public attempts to convey contrary message to those vying with her (Ananangyas/Odumases) for the occupation of the paramount throne are all false propaganda to hold them at bay. She may be absolutely true but for one thing I can assure all those involved in arbitrating the dispute is, God has confirmed the Ananangyas/Odumases as the true royals. They can try but they can never over-rule God's decision. Be that as it may as constantly alleged by Kumawuhemaa, I will still blame the Ananangyas/Odumases for failing to grasp the numerous opportunities that have come their way. Asantehene is not blameable at all despite his possibly held personal interest in the case in favour of his once casual partner. The Ananangyas/Odumases continually fail to discern properly messages put across to them.

Asantehene should please get cracking that whip called "Ntamkese" as invoked by the Ananangyas' family head on Kumawuhemaa. That is where the effective means for solving the dispute lies. The longer he dilly-dallies, the more he gives credence to the Kumawuhemaa's audacious assertions about him having a conflict of interest in the case. What else can explain away the Asantehene's apparent difficulty to obliging the Kumawuhemaa to respond to the "Ntamkese" (the Asantehene's Great Oath), if not the obvious libidinal relationship between them? God will never permit their sexual fantasies to become unconquerable obstructions to Kumawuman having the chief of their choice as ordained by Him. If they doubt God, they can continue to mess around as it is presently the case and the consequences will be dire.

Anyway, Kumawuhemaa and her Ankaase royals are the descendants of one "AYO", an admirably beautiful Fulani slave girl purchased from Ejisu market and taken to the Kumawu royal palace as maid to wait upon the needs of the royal household. What else? Her son, Yaw Dabo the traitor, conspired to become a regent paving the way for his matrilineal descendants (the Ankaase royals), to wriggle their way through to becoming not only illegal, but callous occupants of the Kumawu paramount throne. Almost all the Ankaase chiefs are visionless and embezzlers of public funds. The most typical among them were/are the late Barima Asumadu Sakyi II and the sitting queen. They care less about the welfare of Kumawuman and its inhabitants but themselves.

I am really flabbergasted at the shameless perpetration of greed by the current squinty-eyed Kumawuhemaa. If she thinks she can continue to dish money out to some people in a bid to influencing their decision in her favour for such bribes to be eventually footed by Kumawuman, then she must be daydreaming. She will have to find another means to foot her bribery bills.

Finally, the battle being waged to retrieve the throne from the crafty Ankaase royals should not be the burden for the Ananangyas/Odumases alone but the concern of all selfless Kumawuman citizens the world over. It must be noted that God has in addition to answering your prayers for the throne to go to the very true royals, also allowed one of the Kumawuman sons to be in government. If you fail to avail yourselves of the attendant opportunities presented by both situations, please do not blame God but yourselves. For how long will you sit unable to compute the groundless cost of the Kumawuhemaa's nonsensical delay tactics to handing over the throne to the God's appointed one? She can consult with all the well placed persons in Ghana, God still says the Kumawuman paramount throne has been taken away from the thieves and given back to its rightful owners. It may take time to become visible but the apparent uncertainty surrounding its quick realisation will not last provided Kumawuman people will rise with one voice to claim what is theirs.

Lest I forget, how many more years does she need before submitting her consultative findings on whether or not she is a true royal eligible to rule Kumawuman to the Asanteman Council? When she was slapped with the "Asantehene's Ntamkese" alleging her Ankaase family's illegibility as royals, "enye yen nua ne wo, abusua no mo bewuraa mu"(you are not our sister, you dubiously co-opted yourselves into the royal household), she begged to proceed to consult with her elders - "aberewa", before being able to respond to the invocation of oath on her by the Head of the Ananangya royal family. It has taken her over two and a half years without reporting back. Her inability to report back or counteract the said oath goes to conclude that she with her Ankaase royals is illegible as confirmed by God and supported by my expansive archival research. She should not any further be allowed to exploit any loopholes in the traditional system for installing chiefs. Enough is enough with her nonsense. For how long are you and the Asantehene going to allow her to fool you?

Kumawuman, if you are unable to seize this chance to develop your area, don't blame God or President Mills or me (the vessel of God). I will do the Biblical Jonah if you continue to be persistently nonchalant and ignorant about God's directions. Do you shoot the messenger when you find his message unpalatable?

The Kumawuhemaa was directed by Asantehene, Otumfuo Osei Tutu II, to consider giving the throne back to the Ananangyas. He had said it was an Ananangya queen, Nana Afua Sarpong, who gave the throne to Barima Otuo Acheampong, an Ankaase royal in 1951. It is about time they gave the throne back to the Ananangyas, he had concluded. Unfortunately, Asantehene failed to set a time and date for her to report back to him. She has once more decided to take undue advantage of this loophole to abscond to Accra to work on her collaborative plans aimed at getting an Ankaase royal to occupy the vacant throne. My question to Asantehene is do you commit these errors or omissions deliberately or inadvertently? I am a bit baffled at his indecisions and inattentions to detail. Once again, Kumawuhemaa is never ready to disclose her decision to Asantehene as she once more seems to have been given a leeway. Can she take advantage of God? NO!!!!!!!
