President John Dramani Mahama is expected to meet the Asantehene, Otumfuo Osei Tutu II, on Sunday, January 19, to address the escalating tensions in Bawku and Walewale.
The announcement was made during the President’s visit to the Nayiri Palace, where he engaged with the King and Overlord of the Mamprugu Kingdom, Naa Bohagu Mahami Abdulai Sheriga II.
Expressing concern over the worsening security situation in the Upper East and Northern regions, President Mahama attributed the ongoing violence to chieftaincy disputes between two ethnic factions, which have resulted in significant loss of life and property.
He called for peace and stressed the importance of leveraging the Asantehene’s wisdom and leadership, noting his proven ability to mediate and resolve conflicts in the past.
President Mahama expressed optimism that the upcoming meeting would help chart a path toward sustainable peace and stability in the affected regions.
