September 1963: Return Of The Asantehene - Everyone

September 1963: Return Of The Asantehene - Everyone wants to shake on Tema quayside! -What a welcome the Asantehene got when Nana returned home after his medical treatment abroad! He's looking fine! In the past, because of historical reasons, (one great Asante King, Osei Tutu, was killed by the Akyems as he crossed the Pra River) the Asantehene was never allowed to leave Asante. But today, life has become so complex to travel overseas. Because of the long tradition, however, when Nana Sir Osei Agyyemang Prempeh the Second went to Britain last year for medical treatment, there was anxiety among all the Asante people. Would he be stronger on his return than when he left? (Photograph by Christian Gbagbo BAHA)
