Ghanaian rapper Sarkodie has revealed the reason why he was absent from the final funeral rites of the late queen mother of Asanteman.
This comes after social media users, including MC and radio presenter MC Portfolio questioned the rapper’s absence from the funeral when he has an upcoming concert in the kingdom on the 27th of September 2025.
In a Facebook post, Sarkodie stated that he had planned to attend the event but missed it due to unforeseen circumstances.
In his post, he mourned the late queen and expressed joy over how the rich culture of Asante was beautifully displayed at the funeral.
He wrote ”Sadly, we weren’t able to make it to Kumasi today as planned due to unforeseen circumstances — but we still mourn our queen. Our rich culture was beautifully displayed.
Nana Ama Konadu Yiadom III”
