Who is Agyen Kokobo?
Agyen Kokobo was a southern Akan migrant leader in what is now Ghana. He is believed to have been the earliest leader and founder of the Akwamu kingdom, which he led from around 1480 to around 1500, possibly later. While serving as the Akwamu Chief, Agyen Kokobo ruled the state with his mother as the queen mother. Even today, rulers of the Akwamu kingdom still claim to be descendants of Agyen Kokobo; in the 1960s, one man claimed to be his 28th descendant.
