Roads Minister Is 'Mal�zaa Naa� In Tamale

Mr Inusah Fuseini, Minister of Roads and Highways had been enskinned �Mal�zaa Naa� (Entire Development Chief) as means of motivating other illustrious sons of the Northern Region,� to work hard to develop the area. ������������Alhaji Abdulai Ziblim, Lamashie-Naa who enskinned Mr Inusah,� said the gesture was in recognition of the minister�s hard work in developing the Northern Region and the country as a whole,� in his capacity as a Minister and Member of Parliament. ��������������He said all the MPs in the Tamale Metropolis and beyond,� were hard working and development-oriented,� but that Mr� Fuseini stood tall hence the need to confer on him the chieftaincy title to spur him on to do more. �����������������I am giving him the chieftaincy title as an award for hard work,� and if all MPs or Ministers in the country are hard working like him, I think Mother Ghana would develop. The essence of enskinning them is for them to serve as role models,� he explained. ����������������Those who are in line for similar titles are Murtala Mohammed, MP for Nanton, Haruna Iddrisu, MP for Tamale South and Dr Ahmed Yakubu, MP for Mion and any other MP from the Region who would distinguish himself,� he said. ����������������Naa (Alhaji) Ziblim appealed to the people of Tamale to use the period of the Damba Festival to unite with one another to sustain the current peace in the region. ����������������He said development could not thrive in an atmosphere of conflicts and that the essence of Damba was to also pray for long life and prosperity, which peace should reign supreme in the Tamale Metropolis and in Dagbon as a whole. ����������������Mal�zaa Na Fuseini said,� he was overwhelmed with joy for the honour done him,� and pledged to work harder than before to justify the confidence reposed in him. �������������������He assured the people of the Tamale Metropolis that he would continue to serve them and would always carry out his duties diligently to ensure that Mother Ghana was developed as a way of addressing poverty, disease and illiteracy.
