Comments
In his address Otumfuo cautioned chief who double sells land. My question is, what is he doing to His own secretariat where corruption is being practised? To have your plot allocation paper signed one has to pay so huge fee which could hardly be justice. And i can bet that He cannot say he is not part of this syndicate. If He is saying he's not part then he should investigate and bring the culprits to bbok. It's a shame to the Ashante Palace. May He live longer.
