In reverence to custom and tradition, I called on the Ga Mantse, His Royal Majesty King Tackie Teiko Tsuru II at his residence in Accra earlier today. This is still in consonance with my view of the continued enhancement of the relations between government and traditional authority.
In my remarks, I made allusions to the rich tapestry of cultures, traditions, and histories that make up our beloved nation, Ghana. Our strength, I said, lies in our unity, and our progress is rooted in the cordiality and peaceful coexistence among our diverse ethnic groups.
I recalled the affectionate relations that have existed between Asantes and Gas as buttressed, for instance by the archival document of the programme line-up on 25th July, 1946 of a durbar held by the then Ga Mantse, King Tackie Tawia II, in honour of the then Asantehene, my grandfather, Otumfuo Sir Agyeman Prempeh II at the Old Polo Ground, Accra. Incidentally, the current Asantehene, Otumfuo Osei Tutu II is also scheduled to visit the Ga Mantse on Sunday, 9th June, 2024 in reciprocation of a similar gesture earlier this year by the Ga Mantse.
I further added that the UP tradition, front runner for the present day New Patriotic Party was not the endeavor of a single ethnic group but a collective effort of Ghanaians from various backgrounds and so we are always reminded of the foundational principles of inclusivity and unity.
I am grateful to His Royal Majesty for the warm reception and we shall continue to work together, embracing our differences and celebrating our commonalities, for the prosperity and well-being of all Ghanaians.
