These actions, according to the Royal Family, were designed to undermine the authority, dignity and continued occupancy of the Paramount Stool. Claims that the Konor cursed divisional chiefs or interfered with divisional stool rites were also rejected. The Royal Family explained that while each division controls its own Kuntu, the Paramount Kuntu falls exclusively under the authority of the Paramount Stool. According to the Royal Family, such an act is unknown to Krobo custom and has no customary or legal effect. While reaffirming their non-partisan stance, the Royal Family warned that politicising traditional authority poses a serious threat to peace.
