It has been three years since the stool of Akyem Dwenase found its guiding light in its current Queen Mother, Nana Appeaa Sarpomaa Kumankuma I.
Reflecting on a journey defined by service and spiritual growth, the traditional leader recently marked this significant milestone by sharing a heartfelt message of gratitude and vision on her official Facebook page.
Since ascending the throne three years ago in the community near Osino, within the Akyem Abuakwa traditional area, the Queen Mother has described her tenure as a “life-changing and humbling learning experience.”
For many, the transition into royalty is a daunting task, but for Nana Sarpomaa Kumankuma I, it has been a period of profound personal transformation.
In an emotional tribute to her subjects and well-wishers, she expressed deep appreciation for the community’s role in her success.
”It has been a humbling moment for me. Thanks to everyone for your support, your encouragement, and for holding me down!” she shared.
She acknowledged that the weight of the crown is made lighter by the collective strength of her people, specifically expressing gratitude to the Chief of Akyem Dwenase, Barima Beyeeman Gyekye Sei II, for his steadfast leadership and partnership.
Looking toward the future, Nana Sarpomaa’s reflections remain steeped in spiritual depth and a commitment to heritage.
Her prayers for the years ahead focus on a deeper connection with the heavens and the earth to “drain pure wisdom to rule.”
A desire for her leadership to act as a “mirror to reflect greatness” while expelling negative influences from the realm.
A petition to Odomankoma (The Creator) to keep her grounded and focused on the ancestral purpose of her office.
The Dwenasehemaa’s reign comes at a time when traditional leaders in the Eastern Region are increasingly viewed as pivotal agents for development and social cohesion.
Her emphasis on “solidifying legacies” suggests that the coming years will see an even greater focus on sustainable impact and community empowerment within Akyem Dwenase.
As she enters her fourth year, Nana Sarpomaa has vowed to remain a symbol of the modern Ghanaian traditional leader, one who balances the sacred weight of ancient customs with a contemporary heart for service.
Nana Sarpomaa Kumankuma used the occasion to urge her people to uphold their culture to foster peace, while calling upon corporate entities and individuals to partner with traditional rulers to ensure development of Akyem Dwenase.
