The Asanteman Council has issued strict guidelines on dressing ahead of the one-week observation of the late Asantehemaa, Nana Konadu Yiadom III.

In line with tradition and respect for the solemn occasion, the Council has banned indecent dressing, with a particular emphasis on prohibiting high-heeled shoes and long artificial nails during the ceremony.

The directive was announced by the Queenmother of Kokofu, Osagyefo Kusiwa Muah-Baayie, who has assumed the role of acting Queenmother of Asanteman.

 Speaking to OTECNEWS, she explained that the restrictions are meant to preserve the dignity and cultural sanctity of the event.
