“One day I will bring a princess from Bawku, and I will bring a Prince from Walewale, and I will put them together, and you will see that these two families can belong to each other, just so you see that blood is thicker than water”, he revealed.
He further added, “When you start to take your people’s lives away you will see that the Princess now has given birth for the prince and that is when you realize you are all one”.
