This brought Nii Okwei Kinka Dowuona VI greater prominence in the hierarchy of traditional authorities in Ghana, and gave the Osu Traditional Area a greater say in its affairs. Nii Okwei Kinka Dowuona VI was therefore inducted into the Greater Accra Regional House of Chiefs as Paramount Chief of Osu. The inclusion of the name “Kinka” in his stool name is a significant linkage to "Kinka We" (Kinka Quarter), where the two royal houses of Osu ("Dowuona" and "Owuo")as well as the "Dadebu" Shrine are based. In historical times, the "Dadebu" (literally, "steel pit") was the vault dug in the ground for storing and concealing weapons used by the "Asafo" (warriors). In December 2016, Kinka Dowuona VI was elected President of the Greater Accra Regional House of Chiefs for a four-year term., making him the lead spokesperson for traditional rulers in the region. Nii Okwei Kinka Dowuona VI announced a bold development agenda on his enstoolment. Osu lands encompass prime real estate in national capital of Accra, and the King has sought co-investments to leverage state assets in favour of his people. He has launched the Osu Mantse Community Development Initiative (OMANCODI), a community based initiative aimed at supporting the national government in the socio-economic improvement of the Osu state. The areas of focus for this program are Health, Education, Agriculture, and Real Estate Development. In 2012, he was awarded a Certificate OF Excellence for his dedication to the development of his traditional area by the Elders Forum of the Distinguished Scholars of Africa.. He is an advocate for a stronger, non-partisan role for traditional rulers in national governance. Nii Okwei Kinka Dowuona VI was born to Osu natives Mr. George Nii Noi Dowuona-Owoo and Mrs. Grace Koshie Odarley Wellington. He is married and has six children: Grace Naa Shormeh Dowuona-Owoo, George Nii Noi Dowuona-Owoo, Richard Nii Narku Dowuona-Owoo, Naa Shormeh Dowuona-Owoo, Michelle Naa Shormeh Dowuona-Owoo and Naa Korlei Dowuona-Owoo.
