We need to get this man to help writers to make movies and documentaries for us to preserve our history . We should be serious as a country in this regard . Great asset to the nation

[@kwakubaidentv]

You are absolutely right my brother. Ghanaian movie producers should make movies about our history

[@IsaacMarfo-kk7jf]

Very Necessary

[@quasi_memphis]

Very true. These Greek movies sometimes I feel are African stories retold with Caucasian characters

[@atienuteaakompi2836]

I would be blessed to study history under the feet of Lawyer Yaw Anokye. I am a final year student, Makola.

[@vigilantghanaian8864]

beautiful. This should be Game of thrones series. Just amazing, proud Asante

[@Johnincoom]

Bro if you read history books of old, it more than game of thrones, it a pit you wouldn’t want to enter because you will never wish to return. I was reading history books when I should be learning advanced accounting for the exam next day.

[@mymovieplug8890]

God bless this man he’s intelligent. He’s made me love history

[@apostlethomasojo]

I love and respect this man. He recounting the real history unlike the lies others with loudspeakers once told us in textbooks

[@benababiodanso2885]

Great stuff. The Akwamu warriors (300 of them) that accompanied Osei Tutu were given to the Asafohene, the chief warlord of Kwaman at the time ( latter Kumasi), hence his name Akwamuhene. Anum Asamoah and his people became the police force (Abrafo) and were settled around the king to provide protection, and therefore the vicinity of Palace became known as Anum and later got corrupted to Adum.

[@benjaminoforinyarko9921]

Am talking of the festival It was akwamus but not akuapem because I haven't heard akuapem celebrate akwasidae but Awukudae for akuapem but akwamus celebrate akwasidae

[@TBAbstainer]

Let's make good use of this man before it's too late

[@envilogicaconsult3572]

This historian has abridged the history of the Denkyira war. Three paramount chiefs sacrificed themselves: Tweneboa Kodua allowed himself to be beheaded, Boahen Anantuo allowed himself to be buried alive, Diko Pim led the battle but never fired a gun; rather allowed himself to be shot and killed.

[@dannygreen381]

Wow 😮, very interesting, thanks for sharing these insights . God richly bless you lawyer 🙏

[@IsaacAkomeaFrimpong]

Asantes are welcoming and enlightened. They are deeply proud of their heritage!

[@IsaacFrempong-ln9uv]

There is really history for Ghana.

[@estheraryee6778]

ASANTE NKAI"Asante never took any people it conquered slave,but Asante added the conquered people as Asante and asked its people to see them as brothers and forget how they were conquered. That's how come the ASANTE NKAI

Facts

[@Gh4All]

Yes you are right

[@wastynanayawsey9632]

I don't believe your point of view

This Man is Historically accurate,though He miss the point regards to Kwaamang Hene and Asantehene

[@ebenezerboakyeagyemang7633]

He always misses that point and I don't know why bcs he is so good, knowledgeable and humble. All other historians agree Asante started from Osei Tutu though the attempt or call to unite started with Obiri Yeboah

[@kbaah4u]

I sure can hear Ghanaian peace keeping Soldiers in the background trying to ease tension.

[@YawFrimpong-l6h]

For the Asante nkae statement ,the explanation my matrilineal grandpa from barekese nkatia gave me was that. He stated that asantes are made up of different tribes of which some were servants but in history we don't teach someone's root or background, No one suppose to tell his fellow brother of not being pure Asante and so forth. Therefore we got that proverb saying Asante nkae Odeefuo.but is not Asante nkae.

[@nanabarphy1249]

[@nanajoe2535]

Thanks

[@henrytutu57]

The heros -the chiefs who sacrificed their lives to help Ashantis to defeat Denkyiras should include Asenso kufu(Dwaben-dwumakaasehene)Nana Dikopem of Ejusohene,Nana Nantuo Boahen of Ashanti manpon and Nana Barima Boa kodwoa of Kwumawu and Amankwa whose body was put in the dug up in Fayiese please.

[@koduahkojodavid.1350]

[@Kemikadawase]

He forgot about Nana Asenso Kofo of Adwumakase-Kese. His skin was peeled alive in the process of the sacrifice

[@philipagyeipeprah1694]

you didnt mention Kumawu and Kokofu

[@AgyemangDankote]

Asanteman is bigger than Ghana n greatest kingdom in Ghana n Africa

[@goldengold7829]

I so so love this 🤍

[@henrymasiku75]

Teacher Kantanka's own words says the Sikadwa came after the Denkyira and Asante war but you are saying otherwise.

[@felixkwakyeowusu8377]

lawyer is doing a good job but he should set the record straight that komfo anokye is not from awuku gua. he is from sekyere agona. becuase his parent noticed the wonders he was doing in his early stages that is why he was sent to awuku gua for the chief fetish priests there to train him because that was the place they used to train fetish priest.

[@EmmanuelKNyame]

I now Understand why The Ashantis Revere their King.........

[@Purpledot379]

We are all one people

[@Iamkinyoba]

It hurts i'm just watching this but i think Lawyer didnt do justice to the adage' Asante didi nso asante nkae....'... that is not the full adage, it is actually 'Asante didi wo ho nso Asante nkae wo nkyi' to wit 'Ashanti's benefit from you but will not trace your history or where you from (whoever you are , ashanti's want to know how you can help them, they dont care where you from)... as lawyer rightly said, Okomfo Anokye gave a stern warning to the Ashantis not to trace the ancestry of any captives including their own ancestry...

[@hayfordafriyie1270]

He needs to learn more bcos the meaning of Asante nkai has nothing to do with Okomfo Anokye

[@aboagyedacostakwame1]

Point of correction Kumawu was also part of the Asante original States

[@CharlesAkrasi-Duodu]

The Mamponghene was Boahen Anantuo

[@millerkevin2443]

Lawyer pls point of correction pls the name of my great great grandfather name was Dasebre Boahen Anatuo pls not Adakwa.

[@nanageorgeankomahyeboah1435]

I wish to congratulate Lawyer for telling the history of Denkyira and Asante But I have a different version about the source of name of ASANTE because the tribal group of people called ASANTE were there before the old GHANA empire was founded ,as well as other tribes of AKIMS. AJWAMUS, FANTES. AMENFIS, BONO ETC. Athese tribal people were there in Akans Dia Kingdom long before ALL THE EIGHT AKAN CLANS were created by King Dia of Dia Kingdom which was located in the area where the country MALI is located I am prepared to be invited by MAX TV to throw other lights on the Akans. Thank you. ( Nana Ankomah Yeboah- A Freelance Akan Historian )

[@akuaagyiri2141]

I’m Ashanti, but I believe Otumfour has to do something at Aquapim

[@bigcandy114]

He is very good historian but got some of the information wrong

[@millerkevin2443]

Facts

[@AK-lb8jq]

72 laws of Nana Okomfo Anokye nobody supposed to explain where Ashante people coming from

[@millerkevin2443]

It was 77 pls not 72

[@AK-lb8jq]

Then take yourself into 77

[@bernardaddo1413]

Point of correction, Ashanti kingdom started from Osei Titu not Obiri Boahene, so you should check your facts well

[@JoshuaAdu]

Lots of distortion

[@skzazzy1670]

Please do you have any history about NZema/Ahanta

[@nanaasarebediako7650]

essumeja is where i come from.

[@Sante1700]

Obiri Yeboah was Kwaman hene not Asantehene Asante came after his death Dormaa never fought Asante,but Kwaman,won the first and lost the second So Dormaa wounded Obiri Yeboah and he died later. And Osei Tutu became Kwaman hene and killed Dormaa Kusi then chased them away and then formed Asante with other chiefs

[@algracescientific3510]

You're right

[@hayfordafriyie1270]

I wanted to correct him Dormaa never killed Obiri Yeboah He was wounded and later get sick and die so he did not die in battle

[@freduaagyemang6918]

Nana Obiri Yeboah never sat on the GOLDEN STOOL. Hence, he is not counted as an Ashanti King. Ashanti Kings began with the coming of the golden stool. Nana Osei Tutu is the first Ashanti King.

[@kwasipat]

I wonder why he said that, this is common fact.

[@obuobiii113]

Max TV please invite this gentleman Nana Boadu Ntiamoah for real Akan history. You'll love it

[@edmundamoah7611]

Prempeh I didn't fight a war with the Akyem!

[@AgyemangDankote]

It wasn't Asante but Kwaman when Nana Obiri Yeboah was the chief but after Nana Osei Tutu I became the king that he formed Asante Kingdom so that's the truth.

[@AdusePokuAfriyie]

This man is Akuapem inclined; however he not bad historian

[@KwakuAdjekum-p2k]

The chiefs who sacrificed their lives for Assnte-Denkyira war were Tweneboah Kodua from Kumawu, Asenso Kofo from Adwumakase-Kese and Dokopim from Ejisu. Tweneboa Kodua was not beheaded. He was to go to the war without firing a shot. Asenso-Kofo was buried and concoction was prepared for the warriors to bath before the war and Dokopim was killed and his body was scattered by the vultures and the existent where the body reached was where the kingdom is.

[@asante_24]

Ntor). If Kwamang was the name of present day Kumasi, then how did Dormaa conquer Asante? Obiri Bohen didn't create Asante. Dormaa couldn't have defeated federated States. How big was Dormaa?

[@giftyford2332]

The back of the plantain tump in Akuapem/Akwamu twi is called mposae😂

[@KwakuAdjekum-p2k]

The Asante nkai means the Asantes were not to remember where those defeated come from. Asante don't remember their defeated friends.

[@kofimpaa]

Where exactly was Okomfo Anokye born? I believe is my hometown Awukugua. Historian says Denkyira ?

[@patrickadu8804]

Now the question comes again about how Komfo Anokye and mother (probably parents) came to Denkyira. We've been told in some versions that Komfo Anokye was, and born in Akuapem and some recently claim he's an Ewe.

[@ebenezerdonkor-jk8eh]

Disregard the ewe notion...He is from Awukugua

That lies chronicles. ...😂😂

[@Denkyiraheritagefoundation]

@@Barima100 Okomfo Anokye made a decree that it is a taboo to expose the origin of Asantes. So how were you expecting Asantes to tell their histories without breaking that taboo? That is why most Asante narrations are half truth mixed with lies. They needed to tell the history in such a way that they won't break the law of Okomfo Anokye. So you need to relearn the history of Akan by listening to other sides if you want to know the truth!
