We're exploring the life of Asantehene Prempeh I, the exiled king of the Asante Empire (modern-day Ghana). From his rise to power, supported by his mother Nana Yaa Kyaa, to his defiance of British colonial demands, Prempeh’s leadership threatened imperial ambitions, ultimately leading to his exile in the Seychelles for 28 years.
Prempeh’s resilience, diplomacy, and modernisation efforts shaped the Asante Kingdom’s history, even in the face of colonial oppression.
