Member of Parliament for Klottey-Korle, Dr. Zanetor Agyeman-Rawlings, on Wednesday paid a courtesy call on the Asantehene, Otumfuo Osei Tutu II, at the Manhyia Palace.
Dr. Agyeman-Rawlings, who chairs the Committee on Security and Intelligence, expressed gratitude for the continued guidance of the Asantehene, whom she described as her uncle. She also briefed him on her recent engagements, including discussions on the security situation in areas experiencing prolonged conflict across the country.
Their conversation reflected a shared concern for the welfare of affected communities and the pressing need to foster sustainable peace. Otumfuo, renowned for his long-standing contributions to conflict resolution, reaffirmed the importance of dialogue and culturally grounded approaches to peace-building.
Dr. Agyeman-Rawlings, who was recently appointed as part of Ghana’s delegation to the Pan-African Parliament, also shared insights from a recent engagement with the All Regions Queenmothers’ Association during their visit to the Parliament of Ghana. The discussions focused on women’s representation, the role of queenmothers in peace-building, and efforts to preserve Ghana’s cultural heritage. She highlighted the value of such interactions in bridging the gap between modern governance and traditional authority.
The visit underscored the strong ties between Ghana’s traditional and political institutions and concluded with a shared vision to deepen national unity, bolster security, and strengthen the role of traditional leaders—especially queenmothers—in shaping inclusive development.
