By Abubakr Salim May 4, 2018

On Wednesday May 2, some members of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) faced thee wrath of the Asantehene Otumfuo Osei Tutu II as he nearly sacked the officials who visited the Manhyia Palace. 

The bizarre act was as a results of the fact that, some concerns have been raised by government officials that, the Asantehene is being pitched against the people of Akyem.

However, the Ashanti regional Secretary o the New Patriotic Party, Sam Pyne has stated while speaking on Accra based radio station Starr FM that, the incident is being blown out of proportion.

Mr Pyne stated on the radio station that, “I think this matter is being overblown. Let’s not build a mountain out of an anthill. I was not in the region when the issue happened. It takes nothing to apologize, especially to the Otumfuo,”.

The incident that occurred at the Manhyia palace took John Boadu, the General Secretary of Ashanti region and Chairman Wontumi, the NPP Ashanti Regional Chairman to go down on their knees in an apologetic manner to Asantehene.
