Asomdwee Ntonton Som is the Third Religion of the Most High God RABBI, the Creator of the Heavens, the Earth, and all that is within them.

The first two religions revealed by RABBI are Judaism and Islam.

Asomdwee Ntonton Som was founded by Okronkronyi Nyame Somafo Yawoh, the End-Time Messiah and the Promised Elijah foretold to appear in the Last Days.

Through its spiritual leader, Okronkronyi Nyame Somafo Yawoh, Asomdwee Ntonton Som teaches that the body of a deceased person must not be laid in state for public viewing. This teaching marks a significant departure from the mortuary customs commonly practiced by many Ghanaian Christians.

According to this doctrine, anyone who is not a direct relative of the deceased must not approach the body. Non-relatives are prohibited from coming within nine feet of the corpse. Only direct family members are permitted to approach and, if necessary, touch the body.
