The Supreme Paramount King Tackie Teiko Tsuru II has officially paid a visit to Captain Nii Kojo Nseni Mankattah We.
This historic visit recalls the long standing relationship between the two royal houses and the pact of trust that existed between their fore fathers being Captain Nii Kojo Nseni Mankattah 1 and GA Mantse King Tackie Tawiah 1.
