Asantehene is a Transformational Leader- Ambassador to UN Assembly 

His Excellency Bishop Dr. Akwasi Adu Amankwah, a United States Ambassador to the United Nations Assembly, has described the King of the Ashanti Kingdom as a transformational leader whose reign has brought honour and fame to his people, Ghana, and Africa.

He noted that since the reign of Otumfuo Osei Tutu II as the occupant of the Golden Stool in 1999, he has been a one-of-a-kind monarch whose kingship has brought glory to Ghana and Africa on the global stage.

H.E. Bishop Dr. Adu Amankwah, also the Commander of the Most Noble Peace Ambassadors, stated that the Asantehene has not only been exceptional in promoting Ghanaian culture globally, but his singular contributions to education, health, and infrastructure are evident.

In an exclusive interview with Opemsuo Radio’s Kwame Awuah Nimfour during the first Akwasidae at the Manhyia Palace on Sunday, January 7, 2024, the Honourable Member of the UN Assembly emphasized that “Otumfuo Osei Tutu II is an embodiment of love, peace, wisdom, truth, who does not discriminate and is a mentor for many to come.”

He disclosed that due to the exceptional leadership of the occupant of the Golden Stool, another invitation would soon be extended to him to address the August House of the UN Assembly on culture and developmental issues in Ghana and Africa.

He appealed to other traditional leaders to emulate the good example of Otumfuo Osei Tutu II so that the image of Ghana and Africa would be promoted globally.
