Manhyia Palace reopens, on 1st May

The Asantehene, Otumfuo Osei Tutu II will tomorrow lead a short ceremony to reopen the Manhyia Palace Museum.
The temporary closure on April 10 was to make way for the installation of newly acquired artifacts from three museums in the United States of America and Britain.
The artifacts were returned home after painstaking efforts by successive Asante kings to no avail until the era of Otumfuo Osei Tutu II
Seven of the artifacts were returned permanently by the Fowler Museum in Los Angeles in February this year while 15 gold and silver objects from the British Museum and 17 from the Victoria and Albert Museum (V&A) jointly arrived in the country on April 9
