The story of Okomfo Anokye's sword: The sacred sword that can’t be removed
![Shared From Dlike](https://steemitimages.com/640x0/https://cdn.ghanaweb.com/imagelib/pics/652/65276154.jpg)
Ghana is blessed with a rich culture and one of the people who are celebrated is Okomfo Anokye. Some movies about King Uther in England talks about Merlin putting a sword in the Ground and whoever removes it become the next king.
Over 400 years ago, Okomfo Anokye inserted a sword into the ground and till today, nobody has been able to remove it. In 1964 when legendary boxer Mohammed Ali came to Ghana, he tried removing the sword without any success.
