Mr. Alexander Kwaku Anim Agyemang suddenly took ill and transitioned while assisting with the funeral and burial arrangements for his cousin Kwame Broni on May 19, 2013. Mr. Agyemang was also first cousin to the late Osagyefo Kuntunkununku II (a.k.a. Dr. Alexander Fredua-Agyemang Okoampa), Paramount King of Akyem-Abuakwa, and the son of Mr. Erasmus Kwadwo Agyemang, chief of Akyem-Dokyi, and his wife Ms. Mary Okailey (alias Maame Okailey), of Akyem-Asiakwa, who transitioned about two years ago.
A graduate of the Akyem-Asiakwa Presbyterian primary and middle schools, as well as Ofori-Panin Secondary School, Tafo-Kukurantumi, Mr. Anim Agyemang was employed with the firms Velocity and Beavex for 22 some years.
He is survived by his wife, Joyce Anima, three daughters, and the entire Ayoko and Asona clans of Akyem-Asiakwa.
