Odwira Marks Two Centuries With Heritage Display

This year's Odwira festival, a 200-year celebration, proved to be a resplendent affair, with culture as the focal point. On September 25, 2026, Okuapeman united at Akropong for the historic Odwira Grand Durbar, signifying two centuries of Akuapem Odwira. Dressed in traditional garb and to the lively beats of drums, Oseadeeyo Kwasi Akuffo III, the Paramount Chief of the Akuapem Traditional Area, along with sub-chiefs, queenmothers, elders, and the Okuapeman populace, honored their roots, reaffirmed unity, and celebrated the traditions binding generations.

The event, themed "200 Years of Odwira: Honouring Our Heritage, Securing Our Future," saw the presence of high-profile figures, notably former President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo and MP for Damongo, Samuel A. Jinapor, among others.
