A sub-chief of Mankpang Traditional area of Gonjaland in the Northern Region has dragged Buipewura Abdulai Jinapor to court.
Sorowura S. S Gbankulsuso, who is seeking legal redress in a Tamale High Court, claims that Buipewura Abdulai Jinapor has banished his entire family from the Buipe traditional area and continuously maltreats them.
According to him, Buipewura Abdulai Jinapor has been terrorizing his family since he challenged him over the ownership of a parcel of land in the Mankpang Traditional area.

The frustrated chief is praying the court to alleviate his family’s plight.
He narrated that the Gonjaland Traditional Council, the Buipe Divisional Police Command, authorities of the Central Gonja District Assembly, were aware of his predicament.
Sorowura S. S Gbankulso accused the aforementioned authorities of failing to call Buipewura Abdulai Jinapor to order.
He passionately appealed to human rights advocacy groups to assist him and his family in their pending lawsuit.
The Buipe Traditional area is one of the vibrant economic hubs of the Northern Region where the Savannah Accelerated Development Authority (SADA) has hinted of a huge transformation.
