Ahead of his visit, a list of Otumfuo’s entourage has popped up and it is showing he is travelling with a large retinue.
The list which was posted on Facebook by Akwasi A Amankwa Afrifa suggests Otumfuo will be accompanied to Anloga by 211 servants. The list includes hornblowers, cooks, and sword bearers, among others.
Considering that Otumfuo will be accompanied by other chiefs of his kingdom, his entourage is expected to be even bigger than the 211 people on the list.
