The issue was that originally they went with the name Nana Kwame Date, which is the sitting Mampɔnhene's name. Except his is Nana Kwame Otu Dartey (Dartey is the commonly accepted anglicized spelling). They required that an additional name be inserted to separate my name/title from his own.

Congratulations. A true asset to creating Indigenous Black Kmtyw "Sovereignty" (Supremacy, Self-Government etc).

I agree. BlackPowerful and surreal experience to go through.
Lol. I watched the whole thing last week. I was fascinated, ecstatic for you and your family, Dr. Kambon, and just wanting to know so much. I dont understand the language but hypothesized a lot.

QuoteObadele Kambon;241867 wrote: Thanks, I thought so too. Especially the hand drone camera's perspective. They still use the terminology "kye ɔhene", but now it's more metaphorical that an actual capturing. I agree that the holding on is symbolic of that.
Only once when someone said that they should put the powder on the top of my head and someone responded that they shouldn't because of my hair. The whole process was a dynamic moving consensus as there were suggestions being made on the fly and whatever was decided upon carried the day.
I suspect that the act of the brother holding on to Dr. Obadele Kambon is a symbolism of part of the process. Cause "Kye Ɔhene'' can also mean "Arrest a King" or "Catch a King". But arresting  a king or catching a King, as it relates to this process, it symbolizes the COMMUNITY making a CHOICE of who should be their "Ruler", instead of somebody appointing himself as the King of the COMMUNITY. Ancient form of Kmtyw Democracy. It also symbolizes the STOOL (The Power of the people) United desire and consent to be ruled by the worthy "Chosen One", and not the opposite.
The KINGdom has chosen her KING. And Her "Chosen One" is Nana  Ɔsagyefo Ɔbenfoɔ Obadele Kambon, to become Nana Kwame Pɛbi Date 1.
But if I'm wrong, The KING will correct me. And I'll humble myself for correction.
