Information reaching Soireenews.com indicates that the faction of current Ga Mantse, His Royal Majesty King Tackie Teiko Tsuru II known in private life as Dr Kelvin Nii Tackie Abia is in serious trouble.
The current Ga Mantse, His Royal Majesty King Tackie Teiko Tsuru II and his kinsmen who had occupied the Ga Mantse Stool House at Ga Mashie and Palace at Kaneshie are on verge to vacate these traditional places following the serious preparations by the gate of Boni King Tackie Adama Latse II to reoccupy these chieftaincy houses in Accra.
The move started when the Ga Paramount Stool Dzase, led by Nii Yaote Oto Ga II, has accused the current Gs Mantse of unlawfully occupying the Ga Mantse Paramount Royal Stool House and Palace for the past eight years with the alleged support of the previous New Patriotic Party (NPP) government under Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo.
Addressing a press conference in Accra, the Dzase described the installation of Kelvin Tackie as a violation of customary practices and the Chieftaincy Act 2008 (Act 759).
They maintain that Boni King Tackie Adama Latse II remains the legitimate and gazetted Ga Mantse, having been enstooled in 2011 and inducted into the Greater Accra Regional House of Chiefs in 2017.
The Dzase alleges that Kelvin Tackie was disqualified during vetting by the elders of Abola Piam We and had even signed an undertaking to abide by the Dzase’s final decision.
However, in October 2017, Kelvin Tackie was allegedly installed with the involvement of government officials, including Hon. Nii Adjiri Blankson and Lord Commey, despite Boni King Tackie Adama Latse II’s legitimate claim to the stool.
Further accusations include the use of state security forces to prevent Boni King Tackie Adama Latse II from accessing the Ga Mantse Palace and the removal of his name from the National Register of Chiefs without justification.
The Dzase revealed that a 2021 High Court ruling ordered the restoration of Boni King Tackie Adama Latse II’s name, but the National House of Chiefs has appealed the decision.
The Dzase expressed frustration over the prolonged legal battle and warned of rising tensions among the youth, calling for urgent resolution to prevent unrest.
They assured the public that the rightful Ga Mantse would soon be recognized, emphasizing their commitment to the rule of law and peace in the Ga State.
The press conference concluded with a call for unity among the GaDangme people, urging patience as the matter nears its resolution.
