 * Symbol question.svg Interesting life, on good sources, no copyvio obvious. I didn't know what a paramount chief is, so suggest we link it in the infobox, hook, lead (where it should be mentioned) and first time in the body (it's 2nd now). Am I the only one not to know what "enstoolment" means? I am not familiar with naming conventions, can you explain why you call him Nana Siriboe, which doesn't look like surname to me. I'd think that Ghana is among the well-known countries that don't need a link. Can you be consistent about the capitalisation of "council of state"? I don't think we need the president's honorific title, and feel that the line "with whom the discussed issues of mutual interest" doesn't add substance. You need to repeat his name instead of "his" after you talked about someone else (Nabila). In "He regularly makes public statements which seeks to affect but government and private industry polices.", - statements "seek" (plural), and I don't understand "but". "Nana Otu Siriboe II, revealed", - no comma there, and "revealed" is too strong. In the positions' list, please be consistent about "of the". How do you feel about this rewording of the hook (which I like better than the ALTs)?

 * Thanks for the review. I have addressed all your issues raised. Nana is part of the name of a royal in Ghana, there is no separation between a royal and this name. Enstoolment is the same as installation, in Ghana it is used to mark the process of officially confirming an individual as a traditional ruler. Thanks for the review once again. God bless.

 * Symbol confirmed.svg Thank you! Please make a footnote explaining the name (as you did here), because I may be not the only one to need it. efn and a notelist, like a reflist. Please also combine the two functions in Council of State to one line, perhaps adding years? - Watch my talk for a Christmas greeting, - I only make one for all ;) --Gerda Arendt (talk) 11:28, 21 December 2017 (UTC)
