“It’s dangerous” – Okyeame Kwame reveals his mother stopped him from joining Freemasonry.

Ghanaian rapper Okyeame Kwame has revealed in a chat with Blakk Rasta how his mother persuaded him to turn down the title of Nkosuohene (Chief Development Officer) and discouraged him from joining the Freemasons, citing potential dangers. Okyeame Kwame highlighted her trust in her wisdom, which has always guided him away from paths that she believed could harm him.

Ghanaian rapper Okyeame Kwame has opened up about the profound influence his mother had on his personal and professional decisions.

“I owe him everything,” he confided with a thoughtful smile. “She has been my guide, always leading me away from paths that she thought could harm me,” he said in an interview with Blakk Rasta on 3FM.

One of the most striking revelations from their discussion was his decision to turn down the prestigious title of Nkosuohene (Chief Development Officer), which was offered to him by a close friend who holds a chieftaincy position in Adum. For many, such an honor would be an obvious opportunity to cement his legacy, but for Okyeame, it was not a decision he could make alone.

“I first had to ask my mother for advice,” he explained to me. “When I told her about it, she didn’t hesitate. She told me, “Kwame, being a chief is a responsibility that carries dangers that you cannot foresee. I don’t want you to be caught in this world. » His words struck me and I refused.

His mother’s wisdom went beyond matters of chieftaincy. Okyeame Kwame also revealed that she intervened when he was considering joining the Freemasons, a globally recognized fraternal organization.

I was attracted to the principles they stood for, he admitted, but when I told my mother about it, she was adamant. She told me: “Freemasonry is dangerous. You risk your life if you join. » That was enough to change my mind.

Freemasonry, the oldest brotherhood in the world, has its roots in medieval stonemason guilds. She is known for emphasizing brotherhood, charity and personal growth. However, in African societies it is often viewed with suspicion due to various myths and misconceptions.

For Okyeame Kwame, his mother’s perspective ultimately mattered more than her curiosity.
