“Thousands of our compatriots were in Dagbon to share in the joy of the New Yaa Naa’s coronation a month ago. It marked the climax of a tortuous journey and a hard grind. I’m certainly not looking for praise for the peace that has come to Dagbon.

“I want time, money and effort to be spent on making Dagbon and Ghana great. I pray that we all continue the process until peace becomes the fabric of Dagbion” he noted.
