Self-Proclaimed ‘King’ Deported from UK

Kofi Offeh, who led a group claiming to be royalty from the Kingdom of Kubala, has been deported to Ghana. He plans to establish a new kingdom and assert his authority over the nation. Offeh was previously evicted from a Scottish woodland.

Eviction from Scotland

The 36-year-old was officially deported from the United Kingdom by the Home Office. He initially established an unauthorized encampment on private property near Jedburgh, Roxburghshire, last year. Offeh resided at the makeshift site for several months with Jean Gasho, 42, from Zimbabwe, and Kaura Taylor, 31, from Texas, who adopted the name Asnat and referred to herself as his ‘handmaiden’.

The Kingdom of Kubala

The group identified themselves as King Atehene and Queen Nandi of the lost Kingdom of Kubala. They even live-streamed their encounter with law enforcement and immigration officials after a court order was issued in October of the previous year.

Arrival in Ghana and ‘Takeover’ Plans

Reports from Ghanaian media indicate that Offeh arrived at Accra International Airport earlier this week, wearing a crown made of leaves. According to Kofi TV, the self-proclaimed king arrived in high spirits and is focused on establishing a new kingdom within Ghana.

Bold Assertions of Authority

In an interview with Kofi TV, Offeh asserted that his presence alone was enough to establish ‘dominion’ and command obedience from all, including traditional chiefs, political figures, and law enforcement. He proclaimed his intention to ‘take over Ghana’ to rebuild the Kingdom of Kubala.

Quote: ‘Everyone will bow before me, whether chiefs, politicians or even the police are going to serve me,’ Offeh stated.

‘Sun City’

He plans to center his new kingdom in Sunyani, Ghana’s sixth-largest city, which he has dubbed ‘Sun City’, claiming it is where ‘the sunshine starts in Ghana’.

Scottish Woodland Occupation

The group’s time in Scotland involved claims of ‘retaking’ land purportedly stolen from their ancestors four centuries ago. They relied on public donations and attracted significant attention, including media coverage and social media interest.

Reactions to the Deportation

A spokesperson for the Home Office confirmed Kofi Offeh’s deportation from the UK. Local Tory councillor Scott Hamilton expressed ‘huge relief’ at the news, describing the previous year’s events as incomprehensible and highlighting the aggravation caused to the community.

Quote: Hamilton stated the removal brought a return to normalcy for Jedburgh residents.
