Former President Jerry John Rawlings and his wife Nana Konadu Agyeman-Rawlings have congratulated the Asantehene, Otumfuo Osei Tutu II, on the occasion of his 70th birthday.
In a congratulatory message, Mr and Mrs Rawlings lauded the Asantehene for serving as a unique ambassador for Ghana and Africa and projecting the country on the international stage.
According to them, Otumfuo Osei Tutu should be celebrated for “exhibiting dexterity as a true diplomat and symbol of the rich culture of Ghana”.
Also, the former first couple praised the Asantehene for his exemplary works of promoting peace throughout his life and kingship.
“You have shown great discernment and understanding of the dynamics of national and global politics and served as a peacemaker where politicians have struggled to tread.”
“For the past 21 years that you have been on the throne as Asantehene you have endeared yourself not only to the Ashanti Kingdom but also to the entire country with your wisdom, leadership and calm demeanour,” the former first couple said.
