The Asantehene, Otumfuo Osei Tutu II, has marked 25 years of membership in Freemasonry, expressing no regrets and emphasizing his commitment to promoting peace and benefiting Ghanaian citizens through the organization. 

As the Grand Patron of the Grand Lodge of Ghana, he reflected on initial uncertainties and the impact of Freemasonry, stating, "I have no regrets on being a Freemason, experiencing what it unfolds and what it means to be called a Freemason."

Looking forward, Otumfuo Osei Tutu II emphasized the importance of dedicated members providing relief to the needy and upholding truthfulness. He encouraged the Grand Lodge to expand its influence beyond current areas and reach new regions, promoting Freemasonry as a way of life with over four million members worldwide.
