The Teshie traditional council and all the clans associated with installation of chiefs in the town have dissociated themselves from the recent installation of a Chief in the town.
According to them the claim by the Nii Ashitey Kamoah III, that he is the new chief is illegal and should be treated with the contempt it deserves.
The group addressed a news conference dubbed “Setting the Records Straight”, at Teshie in Accra.
At the press briefing Nii Kwabo Tsweii, the Dzasetse said a new candidate had been identified and groomed ,pending enstoolment . He promised that by the end of the year a chief would have been enstooled in accordance with the Teshie customary law and usage to succeed the late Nii Akomfa III.
He added that the purported chief was not qualified because he had not been taken through the mandatory customary practices and procedures prescribed by Teshie Dzasetse, and the purported kingmakers did not make him sit on Sei kwao; the ancient and authentic black stool of Teshie .
He explained further that the Krobo dzasetse performed the installation ceremony instead of the Mankralo
Nii Kwabo Tswe III added that an arbitration committee was set up to come up with the number of ruling houses and which ruling house’s turn it was to instal a chief.
The committee came up with three ruling houses namely the Ashikwe We , Ashitey We ,and Okpon We. They proposed a candidate who was disqualified and therefore was not accepted. This issue went to the Ga traditional council and was restrained by the court.
He urges the youth not to take the law into their own hands but to be at peace with themselves since everything is going to be restored to normal.
