The self-acclaimed Wenchimanhene, Mr Kwaku Abrefa Damoah has no mandate, and justification for meeting the coronation scheduled for September 21st, 2024 at the Wenchi Jubilee Park of the Bono region. Any attempt to outdoor the self-proclaimed, Mr Kwaku Abrefa Damoah will likely turn the Wenchi township outside down. Odehyie Oben Gyan, Abusuapanyin, Sofoase Yefiri Royal Family and Odehyie Nana Kwame Poku, Abusuapanyin Nkwaduano Yefiri Royal Family have urged the authorities to halt the coronation with immediate effect to prevent tension and chaos on that day. The spokesperson is Nana K.A Busia Jr.
Nana K.A Busia Jr stated clearly that, justice has been denied for too long to decide who qualifies as the Wenchimanhene. He says, history and relevant documents clearly show that Sofoase Yefiri and Nkwanduano Yefiri are the Indigenous royal families for the Wenchi paramountcy.
He stated that the window selection of the paramount chiefs in Wenchi had always been a problem due to the wrong choice. Nana KA Busia says the Bono Regional House of Chiefs president, Osadefo Agyeman Badu orchestrated this illegal coronation to outdoor Mr Kwaku Abrefa Damoah.
According to the spokesperson, the Ahenfie Yefiri coronation is an attempt to breach peace and order, since the case is still pending at the law court. Therefore, any attempt to coronate Mr Kwaku Abrefa Damoah will mar the peace in Wenchi.
To ensure peace and order, Sofoase Yefiri and Nkwanduano Yefiri royal families have petitioned the office of the president, the Attorney General, the Sunyani High Court and other people in authority to stop the coronation of Mr. Kwaku Abrefa Damoah with immediate effect.
He concludes that they will never hesitate if the Ahenfie Yefiri people decide to coronate, Mr Kwaku Abrefa Damoah, on the 21st of September, on the same day, they will also enstool their queen mother in Wenchi.
Their linguist, Nana Kusi Boadum making his libation, pleaded with their ancestors to pave the way for the truth.
