The Association of Police Officers from Asanteman has reaffirmed its loyalty to the King of Asante, Otumfuo Osei Tutu II, pledging to always conduct themselves in a manner that upholds the honor of Asanteman.
During a courtesy visit to the Asantehene at the Manhyia Palace to commemorate his 25th anniversary on the Golden Stool, COP Maame Yaa Tiwaa Addo-Danquah (Mrs.) assured the King of their unwavering allegiance.
Speaking on behalf of her colleagues, she expressed gratitude to Otumfuo Osei Tutu II for his guidance and congratulated him on his milestone.
She assured him that the police service members, as his children and grandchildren, would work diligently to uphold the dignity of the Asante Kingdom and its people.
“We want to thank Otumfuo Osei Tutu II for his counsel and congratulate him on his 25th anniversary ascension to the Golden Stool. We pray for God’s strength and long life to embark on the many developmental projects in Asanteman. We also want to assure him that his children and grandchildren in the police service will never disgrace him or the stool. We will work hard in sincerity to protect lives and property to bring honour and glory to the Asante Kingdom.”
In addition to their pledge of loyalty, the group also made a generous donation of GHC80,000 towards the Heal Komfo Anokye Project, initiated by the Asantehene as part of his 25th-anniversary legacy projects.
The Heal Komfo Anokye Project aims to address the critical infrastructural needs of the Komfo Anokye Teaching Hospital (KATH), Ghana’s second-largest teaching hospital. KATH faces significant challenges due to inadequate infrastructure, impacting its ability to provide quality healthcare services and conduct vital research.
Through the legacy projects, resources are being mobilized to implement comprehensive solutions that will enhance KATH’s infrastructure, ensuring a more functional and efficient hospital environment. This initiative aims to promote healing, comfort, and safety for patients, visitors, and staff, benefiting the people of the Ashanti Region and beyond.
