September 1963 - Return Of The Asantehene - Overjoyed
September 1963 - Return Of The Asantehene - Overjoyed at seeing him again she dances before Nana. In the crowds is Miss Comfort Asamoah, MP. She is garbed in the true fashion of a cultured and wealthy Asante princess - in gold anklets and bracelets and Aggrey beads worth at least 1, 000. Like most of the daughters of Asante present, she is in white to show her chief that she is grateful that the great, unfriendly sea has delivered him safe and sound to his people once again.
