Ousted Sabronum Gyaasehene laments inability to repay funeral loans after losing his position

One of the chiefs destooled by the Asantehene, Sabronum Gyaasehene, has expressed worry over Oumfuo Osei Tutu’s decision to remove him, MyNewsGh.com can report.

According to him, he owes to the tune of GHC 404,000, which was a loan he took from the bank to organize the funeral of their chief, who passed away.

“It is a challenge for me. I owe to the tune of four point four billion, and now that Otumfuo has removed me, how do I pay my debt? Everyone knows that everything that happens in the town I handle. If I don’t have money, I take loans.

When we finished the funeral of our chief, we made only one point four billion. The family members took all the money, and that was what was left. We spent five point eight billion and got only one point four billion. So if you say you are removing me for your nephew to take over I leave you to God,” he said on Kumasi-based Ezra Radio in an interview monitored by MyNewsGh.com.

Sabronum Gyaasehene blamed the Baamuhene for orchestrating his removal to pave the way for his nephew to take over.

It will be recalled that MyNewsGh.com broke the story that Otumfuo Osei Tutu II destooled some chiefs for their involvement in illegal mining.

The King of the Ashanti Kingdom took the decision to remove them after several barrages of stern warnings that chiefs must desist from illegal mining.
