Leadership qualities of Asantehene extolled

The Chief Executive Officer of M.Y. Ventures has extolled the Asantehene, Otumfuo Osei Tutu II for his prudent leadership in the Asante Kingdom and beyond.

Dr. M.Y. Caesar says the King’s commitment to the promotion of peace and development in the country and the world at large are worthy of commendation.

The Asantehene recently delivered a lecture on the topic, “Advancing Together”, under the auspices of the National Commission on Civic Education as part of its annual lectures on democracy.

A statement issued by M.Y. Ventures and signed by its CEO commended Otumfuo “for demonstrating in practical terms his commitment for initiating and facilitating development in various spheres of human endeavour aside the traditional institution”.

According to Dr. Caesar, the institution of the Otumfuo Charity Foundation is enough testimony of the Asantehene's genuine commitment to socio-economic development.

“The numerous visits of the Asantehene outside the country and the desire of most leaders to visit the country to strengthen bilateral and multilateral relations as well as foster unity among Ghanaians and the outside world was an ample testimony of his love for peace”, he said.

Dr. Caesar noted that since his ascension to the Golden Stool, Otumfuo Osei Tutu has proved beyond doubt that he has a lot to offer Ghana in socio-economic development.

He said one way the Asantehene has endeared himself to Ghanaians is his quest to solve protracted land and chieftaincy disputes in Ashanti and other parts of the country.

Dr. Caesar pointed out that land and chieftaincy disputes are the main problems which militate against development in the country, emphasizing that any effort to solve them must be encouraged and supported.

He has therefore urged the people of Asanteman to support the good deeds of the Asantehene as a good ambassador in Africa.
