“So happy for this day, and we should be eternally grateful to Allah that Dagbon has finally seen peace.

After many years of hard work, negotiations, long meetings, disagreements, traditional considerations and agreements, we celebrate the efforts of successive governments for this day.

Working together, the Eminent Chiefs appointed to help resolve the very challenging Dagbon chieftaincy dispute, the Andani and Abudu Royal Families and the people of Ghana, this major success has been achieved and we have a new Yaa-Naa.

Congratulations to the two royal families and the Eminent Chiefs led by Otumfuo Osei Tutu II.

Congratulations to Yaa-Naa, Abukari Mahama II, and I pray for greater wisdom for you as you begin your reign.

Let’s continue to work together for lasting peace.”
