Scotland is drawing public attention with a somewhat unusual incident that has recently occurred. 36-year-old Ghanaian, Kofi Offeh, the self-proclaimed “King Atehehe of the Kingdom of Kubala”, has been forcibly removed from a makeshift camp in the woods near Jedburgh, following the intervention of immigration officers.
The Daily Mail writes that Offeh had been living for months with Jean Gasho, 42, from Zimbabwe, whom he introduced as "Queen Nandi," and with Kaura Taylor, 21, from Texas, who was described as the kingdom's "maid" and his second wife.
They claimed that they were "reclaiming the lands stolen from their ancestors 400 years ago" and survived thanks to donations from citizens.
After two eviction orders were refused, a Scottish court ordered a ban on their return to private land. This morning, police and immigration officers went to the camp, removing Offeh and Taylor in handcuffs.
Taylor was reported missing by her family in the US, who accuse Offeh and Gasho of manipulating her into leaving the country. In the camp, she did housework while the couple presented her as part of their "kingdom."
The group was known on social media for posting videos of rituals, songs and dances, and demanding "gifts" from visitors in order to be allowed to speak with the "king." But their presence has also been accompanied by a wave of great dissatisfaction from local residents, who accused them of disrupting order and occupying land.
