1. Why do you think the democracy of Ghana continues to permit local towns or regions to have tribal chiefs, kings, and the like? Do you think this tradition will continue into the future?

2. Would you have made the same decision as King Peggielene Bartels to accept the royal position? Would you have waited five or six years until retiring as a secretary in the United States to move to Ghana and become king full time?

Ghana is a representative democracy. Yet, many towns and regions are allowed to have tribal chiefs that have considerable power in those locales.
