The Asantehene's arrival at the Piarco International Airport (South Terminal) in Port of Spain, the capital city of Trinidad and Tobago, marked the commencement of his participation in the celebration of their Emancipation Day over the weekend.
To extend a warm welcome to Otumfuo Osei Tutu II, a distinguished reception committee was assembled at the Airport. The committee included Senator Dr. Amery Browne, Minister of Foreign and CARICOM Affairs, Fitzgerald Hinds, Minister of National Security, Senator Paula Gopee-Scoon, Minister of Trade and Industry, and Senator Randall Mitchell, Minister of Tourism, Culture, and the Arts.

As the celebrations unfold and the visit progresses, it is expected that this cultural exchange will further enrich the relationship between the people of Trinidad and Tobago and the Ashanti community, promoting friendship and cooperation for years to come.
