Ghana News-The perceived traditional rivalry between the Asantehene and the Okyenhene appears to have been broken as the two influential leaders have been seen together in images spotted by Starrfmonline.com.

It is unclear the reason for the meeting between the two but Starrfmonline.com sources they are to play together in a golf tournament in Kumasi.
The visit comes few weeks after the Asantehene vented publicly over attempts by some individuals close to President Akufo-Addo to create enmity between him and the Akyem people.
