Pictures: Manhyia Palace marks one-week observance for Asantehemaa

The Manhyia Palace on Thursday, August 21, held the one-week observance of the late Asantehemaa, Nana Konadu Yiadom III, marked by traditional rites and the presence of chiefs, royals, and mourners.

Her passing was formally announced on August 11 by the Asantehene, Otumfuo Osei Tutu II, during a meeting of the Asanteman Council, which brought together all paramountcies and clans.

Nana Konadu Yiadom III, who was outdoored in 2017 following the death of her predecessor, Nana Afia Kobi Serwaa Ampem II, was widely revered for her influential role in the Asante Kingdom and her dedication to preserving its rich cultural heritage.
