LAYING IN STATE OF BRIMA AKWASI AGYEMANG

Most of our elderly men of our land,were mostly known for what they liked or usually do. This became  symbolic to know them, for example Mr. Gyamfi was known for his hat, thereby people calling him Mr hat, Nana yaw Boakye for his Goldsmith, Agya Yaw Amoako,for  his love for cocoa, whiles others too love smoking pipe hanging on their mouth.

Such a person was Okumkom, Nana Akwasi Ayemang, who was know for his British Safari HelmetNot long ago, that we all heard of the befallen of the former Kumasi Mayor Berima Akwasi Agyemang commonly known as

Okumkom which literally means someone who doesn't want to see people go hungry. 

  He was popularly known for dashing cash to people on the streets.

  He, as royal family member of the Oyoko clan, was part of the royal member who could have climbed the Golden Stool of the Asantes as King after the demise of Otumfou Opoku Ware II.

 

The day, 24th of February 2020 marks the laying in state of Berima Akwasi Agyemang at the Manhyia Palace grounds, where people from all around the world, Ghana and Asanteman as a whole will be in mourning.

Nana, Damerifa, Damerifa, Damerifa Due
