President John Mahama visits his hometown, Bole

The Bole Traditional Council has said the ‘Kashintenwura’ (Chief of Truth) title conferred on former President John Dramani Mahama was done with the blessing of the Bolewura Sarfo Kutuge Feso (I) through the Council of Elders and it is still regarded as such.

A disclaimer, signed by the Secretary of the Bole Traditional Council, Abdulai Haruna Obey and dated August 9, 2020, said the attention of the Bole Traditional Council under the able leadership of Bolewura Sarfo Kutuge Feso (I) has been drawn to a fake letter circulating on social media about the title ‘Chief of Truth’ conferred on former President Mahama during his visit to Bolewura’s palace on August 5, 2020, and that the letter is fake.

“His Royal Highness Bolewura Sarfo Kutuge Feso (I) distances himself from the fake letter and its content entirely. The Palace is not a breeding ground for political mediocrity; it is a revered palace for all manner of persons except political warmongers,” the statement said.
