King Charles officially started a historic hand ba' game in Jedburgh, Scottish Borders, a sport played for centuries. Despite security concerns as the scrum neared him, the King remained unharmed and expressed his honor at participating.
Kofi Offeh, a Ghanaian man who described himself as King Atehene, has been deported after establishing a self-styled African tribe called the Kingdom of Kubala in a wooded area near Jedburgh in the Scottish Borders. Arriving in spring 2025 with Jean Gasho from Zimbabwe and later joined by Kaura Taylor from Texas, they claimed to be reclaiming land stolen from their ancestors 400 years ago. The group gained over 100,000 followers on TikTok and Facebook before being evicted from the council-owned woodland site in October 2025.
