Akwantukese Festival

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Akwantukese Festival is a festival celebrated by the people of New Juaben traditional area in the Eastern Region of Ghana. It is celebrated to mark the epic journey of the people from Juaben in the Ashanti Region of Ghana.[1]

They settled not only with their history but the earnest desire to replicate or emulate some communities from their former home in Juaben. Just as there is Oyoko, Asokore, Effiduase and Koforidua in the currently known Ashanti Region, some towns in Koforidua are known to have such names.
