Otumfuo@25: Clean-up Exercise Not Limited to Kumasi But Asanteman – Otumfuo
Asantehene Otumfuo Osei Tutu II has charged all traditional rulers in Asanteman to take the lead in the first of a series of events slated for his 25th Anniversary celebration this month.
He noted that the clean-up exercise should not be restricted to Kumasi, the capital of Asanteman, but must be witnessed as far as Seikwa in the Bono Region, an extension of Asanteman’s territory.
“The exercise is not limited to Kumasi. Seikwa is part of Asanteman as well as all others in different regions. You all must come out in your numbers to make sure the various surroundings are cleaned up on Saturday. After that we will meet on Sunday for Akwasidae,” he said during the Asanteman Council meeting on March 28, 2024.
Otumfuo will join the exercise and also inspect the clean-up in selected communities.

The cleanup exercise will be spearheaded in all paramountcies with the collaboration of Zoomlion Ghana Limited.
Giving details about the exercise, Otumfuo Kyeamehene Nsuase Poku who leads the Sanitation Committee, said the aim is to make the environment appealing for the subsequent events.
Addressing the Asanteman Council, he said the various Assemblies in the Ashanti Region have been brought on board for the success of the exercise and to make it a tradition even after the anniversary celebration.
It will begin at 6am and end at noon during which shops will remain closed.
