Maryland Governor joins Asantehene for Akwasidae celebration in US
Maryland Governor Wes Moore and his wife joined the Asantehene, Otumfuo Osei Tutu II, and members of the Ghanaian community in the United States for an Akwasidae celebration held at Bowie State University in Maryland over the weekend. The event transformed the university campus into a vibrant display of Ghanaian culture, with hundreds of Ghanaian community members gathering to pay homage to the Asantehene and celebrate the rich cultural heritage of the Asante people.
Akwasidae is a significant traditional observance of the Asante people, celebrated every six weeks on a Sunday, to honor ancestors, the Asantehene, and the Golden Stool, which holds deep spiritual and historical significance for the Asante people.
