When her brother died in 1894, Yaa Asantewaa used her right as Queen Mother to nominate her own grandson as Ejisuhene. When the British exiled him in the\u00a0Seychelles\u00a0in 1896, along with the\u00a0King of Asante\u00a0Prempeh I\u00a0and other members of the Asante government, Yaa Asantewaa became regent of the Ejisu-Juaben District. After the deportation of Prempeh I, the\u00a0British\u00a0governor-general of the\u00a0Gold Coast,\u00a0Frederick Hodgson, demanded the\u00a0Golden Stool, the symbol of the Asante nation. This request led to a secret meeting of the remaining members of the Asante government at\u00a0Kumasi, to discuss how to secure the return of their king. There was a disagreement among those present on how to go about this. Yaa Asantewaa, who was present at this meeting, stood and addressed the members of the council with these now-famous words.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The rebellion and its aftermath<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"alignleft\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"229\" height=\"385\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/africaglobalnews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/yaa-asantewaa.jpg?resize=229%2C385&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-687\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/africaglobalnews.com\/website_b1ce9d46\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/yaa-asantewaa.jpg?w=229&amp;ssl=1 229w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/africaglobalnews.com\/website_b1ce9d46\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/yaa-asantewaa.jpg?resize=178%2C300&amp;ssl=1 178w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 229px) 100vw, 229px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Beginning in March 1900, the rebellion laid siege to the fort at Kumasi where the British had sought refuge. The fort still stands today as the Kumasi Fort and Military Museum. After several months, the Gold Coast governor eventually sent a force of 1,400 to quell the rebellion. During the course of this, Queen Yaa Asantewaa and 15 of her closest advisers were captured, and they too were sent into exile to the Seychelles.\u00a0The rebellion represented the final war in the\u00a0Anglo-Asante\u00a0series of wars that lasted throughout the 19th century. On 1 January 1902, the British were finally able to accomplish what the Asante army had denied them for almost a century, and the Asante empire was made a protectorate of the British crown.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Yaa Asantewaa died in exile in the Seychelles on October 17, 1921. Three years after her death, on 27 December 1924, Prempeh I and the other remaining members of the exiled Asante court were allowed to return to Asante. Prempeh I made sure that the remains of Yaa Asantewaa and the other exiled Asantes were returned for a proper royal burial. Yaa Asantewaa\u2019s dream for an Asante free of British rule was realized on 6 March 1957, when the Asante protectorate gained independence as part of Ghana, the first African nation in Subsaharan Africa to achieve this feat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sources: <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Yaa_Asantewaa\">Wikipedia<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Africa Global News Publication<\/strong> <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Prelude to rebellion During her brother\u2019s reign, Yaa Asantewaa saw the Asante Confederacy go through a series of events that threatened its future, including civil war from 1883 to 1888.
