The people of Breman Asikuma in the Central Region of Ghana originated from Asante Breman in the Ashanti Region around 1600. The people left Asante Breman in search of a more suitable place to settle. As they sojourned, they reached Tarkwa near Breman where they met with a strong resistance from the People of Tarkwa. They were, however, able to overcome the people of Tarkwa even though they were fewer in number. This won them the appellation “Tarkwa-Breman Akonfona”. They moved with their god called Akwasi Apofram who was consulted in cases of emergency.
As the People were searching for a final abode, they were joined by other people of Asona Clan. They then finally settled at Asona Amanfoso which is the present day Asuokoo near Jamra. When they settled at Asuokoo they were involved in intermittent wars but were able to overcome their enemies.
Around 1635 they had a call from the people of Ahwiam to assist them fight a war (Adomangya). They responded and eventually helped the people of Anhwiam to overcome their enemies at Brofo near Bedum.
After the Adomangya war Nana Amoakwa Buadu I settled at the current site of Breman Asikuma. When he died, he was burried at “Edwabrim” “Roundabout” at Breman Asikuma.
After the burial, they constructed five (5) paths to enable the people guard the Paramount Chief so that he would not be removed from the grave. The paths constructed are the major streets in Breman Asikuma, namely Apagya, Ekumfi, Akonfodze, Ahenama, and Mbraa. Other people from different clans later joined during this period. When Nana Amoakwa Buadu I died, he was succeeded by Nana Amoakwa Buadu II.
