Overlord of Gonjaland, Yagbon-Wura Tuntumba Boresa II has expressed his deepest worry that one Charles Antwi planned to kill President John Dramani Mahama.
He raised this concern at the inauguration of the 147 kilometer stretch asphalted Fufulso-Sawla road in the Northern Region.
He recounted the incarcerated Charles Antwi’s failed attempt to kill the President at the first family’s church, hence his call for the President’s maximum protection.
“I want to use this opportunity to register my sincere regret and mixed feelings when an attempted assassination of His Excellency was evidenced.”
“Two schools of thought came in mind when the news was in the public domain: I registered my deepest displeasure to the act the fact that if that was done we were going to lose a valuable asset who indeed in the history of Ghana may be second to none and the second look of the matter I concluded that President Mahama is working for the people in the right direction.”
He has therefore underscored the need for the nation’s security operatives to be extra vigilant in protecting the President.
The Yagbon-Wura insisted that the Presidential guards should intensify their surveillance network to forestall evil machinations aimed at killing President Mahama.
“Though our security personnel demonstrated professionalism, I still urge them to be extra vigilant around the President of the Republic of Ghana.”
He commended government for the numerous completed and ongoing projects in Gonjaland.
He however appealed to government to fix the water crisis in Damongo Township.
“The Damongo water situation is still the same and this situation usually permit students to compete with their parents for water in Damongo: it is sad that students usually compromise their studies with the search for water in Damongo.”
