The Asantehene Otumfuo Osei Tutu II (M) and his children seated with him
A very uncommon photo of the Asantehene, Otumfuo Osei Tutu II, with two of his children: Oheneba Afia Kobi Serwaa Ampem and Oheneba Kwame Kyeretwie, has surfaced on social media, offering a rare glimpse into the private life of the revered Ashanti monarch.
The image, shared by Asante Nation on X on Friday, June 13, 2025, was captioned, “Oheneba Afia Kobi Serwaa Ampem and Oheneba Kwame Kyeretwie with their father, the King.”
Otumfuo Osei Tutu II, born Nana Barima Kwaku Duah on May 6, 1950, became the 16th occupant of the Golden Stool following the passing of his predecessor and “senior brother,” Otumfuo Opoku Ware II.
He was officially enstooled on April 26, 1999, after being selected on February 25 that same year.
Beyond his traditional authority, Otumfuo Osei Tutu II also serves as Chancellor of the Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology.
He is married to Lady Julia.
