Nana Yaa Akyaa, Queenmother of Goaso Traditional Area, has nominated a 56-year-old Kumasi-based druggist, Mr Antwi Agyei for consideration as the Omanhene of the Goaso Traditional Area.
At a meeting of the Boadi Royal Family at Goaso, 11 out of 15 family members, who formed the Electoral College, voted for Mr Agyei while four voted for Nana Kwame Nsiah, another nominee.
Opanin Kwame Afriyie, a spokesman for the Queenmother, said Mr Agyei would be introduced to the Asantehene, Otumfuo Osei Tutu II in due course.
He said it is the sole responsibility of Nana Akyaa, who is recognised by Otumfuo Osei Tutu as the Queenmother of the area, to nominate a candidate for consideration to occupy the vacant Goaso stool.
Krotwiamansa Adjei Ampofo abdicated last year.
