Osei Kofi Tutu I (c. 1660 - c. 1717) was one of the founders of the Ashanti Empire, aided by Okomfo Anokye, his Chief Priest and distant relative.
He ruled the Kumaseman State between c.1680/c.1695-1701 (he was definitely Kumasehene by 1695) and he ruled the Ashanti Empire from late 1701-c.1717.
His father was the Chief of Esiase near Kokofu and his mother was a native of Kokofu.
He was born in Kokofu Anyinam when his mother was on her way to visit her husband in Esiase but couldn't reach home and started experiencing the urgency to give birth.
Anyinam is a celebrated community with rich history to show.
