Gyaborians who now reside in Mampong Akwapim were originally from Ashanti Mampong. They were described as warriors who knew how to travel easily overcome enemies of war during those days. King Osei Tutu during his reign, asked these Gyaborians to travel to the present day Mampong Akwapim to stop the Ewes and the Krobos from attacking Akan tribes around Koforidua and surrounding towns.
Gyaborians have since remained in Mampong AKwapim and never returned to Ashanti Mampong.
