Asantehene and Dormaahene

The Ghana Journalists Association (GJA) has cautioned journalists to be extremely careful when reporting on issues relating to the simmering tension between Asantehene Otumfuo Osei Tutu II and Osagyefo Agyeman Badu II, Dormaahene.

The statement explained that the matter, if not handled with the highest degree of circumspection, especially by the media, could escalate.
