It is likewise very clear from his purposeful memory helper selectivity or specific amnesia that the Osafo-Maafo pundit is horribly ill-equipped or harmfully and startlingly angry of reality, which is that Obaahemaa or Nanabaapanyin Yaa Asantewaa, the unbelievable and deified Queenmother of Edweso/Ejisu was the genuine generally settled sister of The Okyenhene, initially from Adansi-Akrokerri-Kokobiante, where a few Asante Lords chosen their spouses, frequently to the savage hesitance and obstruction of The Okyenhene.
This most "upsetting" information as of late caused a John Agyekum-Kufuor relative, by the name of Prof. Agyeman-Duah, assuming memory serves me precisely, to weakly and uninterestingly endeavor to reconsider this all around the world prestigious authentic truth by spuriously or unconventionally guaranteeing that Nana Yaa Asantewaa had not actually been the considerable Queenmother of the Kumasi-Edweso/Ejisu Stool in any case, rather, the minor queenmother of one of the towns nearby the last municipality, as though such egregious misrepresentation of the verifiable job of Nana Yaa Asantewaa versus Asante protection from English pilgrim government would essentially bring down either the sign meaning of Nanahemaa Yaa Asantewaa or the truth of the awe-inspiring authentic accomplishment for which this Virtuoso and Amazing Okyenhene's sister universally separated herself.
For sure, I have frequently noted with conscious cynical humor that "The Best Asante Lady Champion of the twentieth Century was an Akyem." as a general rule, what Prof. Yaw Amoateng Acheampong may not be aware and assuming he knew, would have tempered his violently hostile to Akyem presumption with an exceptional speck of decency and modesty is the way that generally speaking, The Okyenhene and The Asantehene are close family members who have, normally, occasionally acted combatively towards each other via what may be suitably named as "Kin Competition." all in all, we, the Akyem and the Asante public, imperfections and everything, completely value each other in manners that "complete spectators" like Prof. Yaw Amoateng Acheampong could understand or visualize with sheer wonderment and bewilderment too.
