In response, principal elders of the Odau Group, at a meeting with the Akyem Abuakwa State Standing Committee held at the Ofori Panin Fie in Kyebi, formally disassociated themselves from the position. From time immemorial, our stools and allegiance have been subordinate to the Ofori Panin Stool of Akyem Abuakwa. The Chief of Pramkese, Barima Kwasi Frimpong, also rejected claims by the Etweresohene that Etwereso constitutes an independent kingdom. “We completely and publicly denounce the declaration of an ‘Odau Kingdom’ by the Chief of Etwereso. We believe that the rightful place for this matter is before the Akyem Abuakwa Traditional Council and the appropriate judicial committees, not in the marketplace of public insults, or the unruly social media, press, or self-declared kingdoms.
