President John Dramani Mahama will on Sunday, January 19, pay a courtesy call on Otumfuo Osei Tutu II, at the Manhyia Palace in Kumasi.

The visit is part of the President’s engagement of traditional rulers as part of efforts to resolve the decades-old Bawku Conflict.

President Mahama disclosed his planned visit to Otumfuo, during a courtesy call on the Overlord of Mamprugu, Naa Bohagu Abdulai Mahami Sheriga, at his Palace in Nalerigu, the North East Regional Capital, on January 15.

On the same day, the President earlier, held a similar engagement in Bawku with Zugraan Naba Asigri Abugrago Azoka II, the Overlord of the Kusaug Traditional Area in the Upper East Region.

President Mahama told Nayiri that, in his last briefing with former President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo before he left office, he briefed him about some invitation efforts that they were undertaken; saying, “I wish to be able to discuss it with him before and see how we can continue with that effort”.

He said, he knew that the Nayiri, the late Yagbonwura and Otumfuo were the ones who solved the Dagbon problem.

President Mahama said former President Akufo-Addo gave a hint that Otumfuo had been playing some roles, and so he was supposed to be with Otumfuo on the 19th of this month. He noted that whatever comes out of his meeting with the Otumfuo, he would inform Nayiri.

My beloved Ghana or Ghanaians we have 16 regions in our motherland therefore H E President Mahama with great respect kindly involve all the regional chiefs to participate in solving the conflict in Bawku. Where there is multitude of counselors there is safety or victory for Ghana ( Proverbs 11;14 )

Should the Free SHS policy be reviewed?
