Ya-Na, Yangbonwura should use their influence to resolve Bawku Conflict – S/R Minister pleads

The Savannah Regional Minister Salisu Be-Awuribe has pleaded with the two Overlords, Ya-Na Abukari II, the Overlord of Dagbon, and the King of Gonja Land, Yangbonwura Bii-Kunuto Jewusoale to leverage their influence in mediating between Mamprusis and Kusasis to be able to find lasting solution to the long aged conflict in Bawku.

According to the Minister, the two Kings should come together and chart a common path geared towards resolving the conflict in Bawku, ensuring lasting peace in Northern Ghana.

He made the remarks when the two Kings shared a common platform at Jakpa Palace, displaying rich cultural heritage following a historic visit paid to the Overlord of Gonja Land, Yangbonwura Bii-Kunuto Jewusoale by His Royal Majesty, Ya-Na Abukari II on Sunday 16th February 2025.

Hon. Salisu believes that based on the relationship built between the two Kings, they can use it to settle the differences between their brothers, Kusasis and Mamprusis, who are enduring difficult times at the moment.

“I will urge the two Kings to see how they can use their influence to be able to help their brothers in Mamprusi and Bawku. This issue of the shooting and killing of our own people, the Kusasis and Mamprusis can be another issue that the two kings should be able to go into and resolve that area to ensure that the North has the lasting peace”.

His call follows brewing tension escalating in Bawku and Walewale resulting in attacks on travelers on the Highways, recording deaths on those occasions.

He also stressed the need for the two Kingdoms to come together and resolve undefined territories and boundaries causing confusion between Gonjas and Dagombas.

“Many of these traditional areas have undefined boundaries with this cooperation that exists between Dagbon and Gonja, the hitherto undefined territories and boundaries which have the potential to create disunity between the people of these kingdoms, is something you must do in the spirit of unity and rallying call work together. With this spirit, we can sit together on a round table and be able to iron out this thing in brotherhood and in peace”.

‘’I’m equally aware of the various differences between Wasipe, Kusawgu, Kpembe, Kakpande, Jantong, and Kpanshagu. With their brothers from the Dagbon Kingdom of Tolon and Nyankpala, Bamvum, Nanton, and Sagnarigu. These efforts that our leaders have actually shown the way. And being the beginning of a more lasting, fostering unifying force, for which all of us can stick together and dine together and settle the hitherto undefined boundaries. And that will restore a long-lasting peace between the two Kingdoms”.

“We have shown to the people of the world that we the people of the North can equally be a unifying rallying force. And no other has that tendency, potential, and rallying force than we the people of the north”.
