Sunyani Krontire Royal Family initiates legal action for the destoolment of Krontirehene.

The Krontire Royal family in Sunyani says it has initiated legal action before the Judicial Committee of the Sunyani Traditional Council to destool and remove Nana Bofotia Boamponsem II as the Krontirehene of the Sunyani Traditional Area.

It will be recalled that on March 28, 2022, the Sunyani Traditional Council, presided over by Nana Bosoma Asor Nkrawire II, Omanhene of Sunyani Traditional Area, suspended Nana Bofotia Boamponsem II, for deliberate and persistent recalcitrant behaviour to distort the history of Sunyani and the Kontire Royal family and to bring the image of the Boahen Korkor royal family into disrepute.

The two-year suspension imposed on the Krontirehene, banning him from carrying himself out and from performing any role as Krontirehene of the Sunyani Traditional Area, also affected the entire Krontire family,l negatively.

Speaking in an interview the spokesperson of the Krontire Royal family, Nana Kwabena Boye Boahen indicated that, "the suspension of the Krontirehene brought not only disgrace and shame on the entire Krontire family but has deliberately prevented the Krontire family from observing the crucial pouring of libation on the Krontire stool and thus denying the Krontire gods the spiritual nourishment they require for three years and counting."

"When the elders of the Krontire family invited the Krontirehene on several occasions to a meeting to find ways of traditionally purging ourselves of the abomination and begging for forgiveness from the Sunyani Traditional Council and other related issues affecting the family, Nana Bofotia refused to meet his elders which acts of insubordination constitute a destoolment offence", he explained.

Nana Boye Boahen stressed the family has since resolved to rid the Krontirehene of his stool for insubordination.

"It is the singular objective of the Elders and family members of the four out of five gates of the Krontire stool to rid the Krontire Stool of its insubordination, recalcitrant and disrespectful occupant to ensure that, never again will the Krontire Stool be overturned at Sunyani Traditional Council", he noted.
