First is the stool room and then Asantehemaa.
He explained that traditionally, Asantehemaa is his mother and therefore there is the need to present himself and pay homage to her after every trip.
Following the King’s homage to the Queen, he went to his residence at the Palace to receive homage from various traditional leaders and guests.
The King has just arrived from the United Kingdom (UK) following his invitation to attend the coronation of King Charles III.
