The Bantamahene, Baffour Owusu Amankwatia VI, is worried about the developmental state of the Ashanti Regional capital, Kumasi. The influential sub-chief in an interaction with the media has subsequently pleaded with the government to give more attention to the state of Ghana's second-largest city. According to a report by myjoyonline.com, the Bantamahene said Kumasi was gradually turning into a village. The Bantamahene, is also the head of the Krontire clan (Head of town) of the Kumasi Traditional Council and also serves as the war marshal of the Asantehene. Therefore, if the Asantehene perceives the occupant of the stool as someone who is not loyal to him, he immediately destools him.
