Being from the Akan group from Ivory Coast myself, I had tears in my eyes watching this video. Certainly, tears of sadness, because we say goodbye to President Konan Bédié, worthy Akan son of the Baoulé tribe, but also tears of joy seeing that King Asantehene Otumfuo Osei Tutu II honored his son by sending a delegation to Ivory Coast to represent him. This proves that beyond everything that may have happened in the past, we remain Akan and a family. Wherever we are, blood ties are never lost. I give thanks to God and our ancestors for uniting us so that we always remain standing and that they continue to bless the king so that he guides us with wisdom. Oseeeeiii yeeeee

We, the Akan from Côte d'Ivoire thank the Asanteman and his Majesty the Asante Ehene for ever!

Merci au roi des ashanti et sa cour d’avoir honoré notre Papa Bedié dans la pure tradition akan. Vive le roi. Longue vie au roi. Asante oye.

Merci à mes ancêtres d'avoir honoré la mémoire de notre papa Bédié, grand grand merci à vous. Je suis très très fière d'être AKAN et surtout Baoulé du grand Oualèbo Sakassou, ne jamais oublier d'où on vient, merci encore au Roi Ashanti et à toute cette belle délégation.

Asante y3 Oman. Long live the KING 🤴

Piawwww 👑💛🖤💚💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻 Asante Kingdom loves their own 🫡🫡🫡

✨👍🙏💛💚♥️✨ Thanks to Nanan Asantehene for This Strong Presence And Great honour ✨ God bless Ghana And Côte d'Ivoire, Africa And The World ✨

I shed tears watching this! May the soul of the former president be with the ancestors. What also made me tear up is how we are still connected as a people. Asante/Baoule/Anyi and all Akans to a much larger extent seem to respect and love our shared culture. These African borders need to be removed. First, let’s start with Ghana and Ivory Coast.

I am so proud of my both countries!!! Ivory coast and Ghana forever ❤❤❤❤

Beautiful Africa! The best in the World !!!!!

Asante Culture on display 💪🏾💪🏾🫶🏻💛🖤💚👑💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾✌️✌️ Piawwww

Manso Nkwanta Manhemaa really getting into the swing of things. Abrokyire ababaawa na w'ab3te amamer3 ne amane3 saa no? Hw3 ne unadulterated traditional Asante dance and her mannerisms. Asante has discovered a real gem of a female traditional leader. Manso Nkwanta Manhene certainly knew what quality person he chose as Queen. I'm happy seeing the Queen thrive.

Beautiful...amazing honour...

Vivre la tradition ashanti, je suis fier de vous mes ancêtres ❤️❤️❤️❤️

May our ancestors receive you in the name of sika dwa 🖤💚💛👑

MERCI A nos frères Ghanéens

ASANTE KINGDOM

Magnifique traduction et Yako à vous tous et toutes aussi la côte d'ivoire

Thank you ,Medawase for your remarkable presence during the funeral of our former president 🇨🇮 Aimé Henri konan Bedié.

Congratulations to the Ashante Kingdom

May he rest in peace 🙏 🪦

Piawwww ma beautiful daughter, 3fata wo . Nana Sika Nyarko Aboraa 11, so proud of u❤️❤️

If the Asantehene himself had come, the entire Ivory Coast would turn upside down because thousands of Ghanaians would follow him and the president of Ivory Coast himself too would have no option than to come. He refers to the Asantehene as his father.

Great great guys

They are really Ashantis

Le peuple akan principalement ceux qui sont venus du Ghana on a fini avec la noblesse Repose en paix papa et que la terre de tes ancêtres te soit légère Adieu

If the Asantehene wants full recognition of the Bawule people who are the descendants of Nana Abena Pokuaa, of the Oyoko-Adakor family, people will still have doubts about the territorial sovereignty of the Asanteman. Going to Ivory Coast himself with entourage could mean and tell a lot historically

Asante ye Oman Ampa Piaw

thanks for coming

Bah : un homme peut rentrer dans le ventre de la nuit. Il peut quitter les siens, ses compatriotes, le monde. La Condition humaine , à première vue , c'est la fragilité, c'est la précarité. Mais ce que le destin ne saurait contrarier , c'est l'image-Testament, ce sont les souvenirs et tout L'édifice qu'il a bâti à la sueur de son front et l'ardeur que son esprit a déployée pour concevoir son œuvre ! Notamment dans le cas d'un Président d'une grande République.

Piaw

Très fier d'être Baoulé

The chief doesn't know how to dance, all chiefs must learn how to dance. I love the queen, she dances very well. The chief should learn from either Asantehene or Hemanhene, Nana Sawansa.

Piaaaw

Are they liveing in Ashanti

Nana Osei Tutu Ababio could not attend the funeral? Nsutamanhene did not go either just as Juabeng Manhene. That’s not good at all. Asantehene should have gone to Ivory Coast the same way he did to honor Berekum hene Amankona Diawuo

Otumfuo/Manhyia/Asante show the world the practice and as well as the importance of DELEGATION. How beautiful it is to see Kuntanase Hene and Manso Nkwanta Hemaa representing Asantehene and Asantehemaa respectively. This is exemplary!
