our culture in Ashanti Region is lovely
Ah ah is it this 1di0ts carrying things with their mouth likes dogs they are calling rich culture? Or this possessed little boy who should be in school but has been made a synagogue of satan they are referring to? Ok may your sons and daughters be possessed with an evil spirit like that so that they can serve in the akonedi shrine! If you are not a hypocrite and you are truly proud of your culture say amen! Then mention their names one by one and ask that they are possessed! The African proverb of the day: The antics of a market buff00n provide laughter, but nobody want to pray for their child to become a buff00n."
@ Nana Osei, come to think of it, but for the so called whiteman's religion, you would have been an alien to education and probably have been walking bare foot in your village, with rotten teeth, smelly mouth and armpit unable to spell your name not to talk about writing or talking this your rub1sth here. You are the devil's kitchen listen to the people who call for repentance and repent! They are right what is happening is devilish. A rich devilish, satanic, barbar1c Ashanti culture indeed!
You perish in your folly when a man or a group of people rebel against the word of God in the name of tradition. Mark 7:13 says "Thus you nullify the word of God by your tradition that you have handed down. And you do many things like that". The word of God is not the religion of the Whiteman! It is the divine word of salvation to mankind through Jesus Christ the son of God and the saviour of the world. You can pretend and have ***barred word*** pride in the name of Ashanti culture but in hell, all your ***barred word*** grammar will disappear if you do not repent. Rev. 21:8 reads " But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death". A soul is a soul, be it a king so called or watchman so described. Knowing Jesus is the only thing that values a man before God and not which tribe you come from. What is happening is satanic and barbar1c.And remember Gal.6:7 says "Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap" remember hell fire when you go on with this your rich culture vituperations!
When President Mahama could not think far, he insulted Ashantis that they are ungrateful and they thought him common sense by reducing his votes in that region. Asahntis are superior in Ghana leave them alone
Only f0o0ouuls will say Ashanti culture is barbaric. Anyway what about your culture? Your chiefs are only interested in multiple sale of lands in the capital, Accra. You are more barbaric than we Ashantis

It takes a brainwashed African to look down on his own traditions and culture. What has the whitemans religion done for you? They introduced christianity just to make you a good slave. When you are taught your history started from slavery,everything foreign looks better to you. we Ashantis knows about our proud history and will keep it till time indefinite. your culture is your immune system, don't loose it. for your information, Christianity is also about human sacrifice.
Leave them to think what they think. They communicate on ignorance and only what they hear on media. They claim Christianity but worship God in vain.When their so called pastors are doing things that are not biblical they fear to say its barbaric and satanic. Yet all culture is barbaric. They no not the difference between Fearing God and Going to church. You worship God in vain. When your church is being criticized you think is by faith so we should ignore it. you see the hypocrisy of yourselves.
I am an Ashanti but find the whole practice annoying and backward. There is nothing in culture to be proud of this. This is primitive, satanic and backward. Akans should be able to walk away from this rubbish.
