Government is appealing to the family of the late Nakpaa-Naa Alhaji Salifu Dawuni to soften their stance and bury the chief.<\/p>\n

Government has admitted that the\u00a0delays in burying the late chief is a major cause of the ceaseless chieftaincy crisis in the Nanun Traditional Area.<\/p>\n

[contextly_sidebar id=”Yt0uLdzeyfheEg4QU6naYeAdrurfjtb8″]The late Nakpaa-Naa Alhaji Salifu Dawuni\u2019s corpse is currently at the Yendi Government Hospital morgue.<\/p>\n

The family refused to bury the remains because of confusion over the burial site.<\/p>\n

The family argued that the late Nakpaa-Naa Alhaji Salifu Dawuni should be buried in line with the customs of the Nanun Traditional Area as paramount chief of Bimbila.<\/p>\n

The other side of the chieftaincy divide, the Andani family is strongly opposed to this demand.<\/p>\n

This is why the Northern Regional Security Council (RECSEC) has made a passionate appeal to the bereaved family to soften their stance.<\/p>\n

The Northern Regional Minister, Alhaji Mohammed Muniru Limuna in a Citi News<\/strong> interview said, \u201cWe are engaging the regional peace council to also go and prevail on them to consider this idea of burying the chief: we believe that because the chief is not buried that is what is bringing out this tension.\u201d<\/p>\n

He said the family could continue with their legal pursuit on the matter after the burial.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are not stopping them from pursuing the matter in a higher court: we only think that it can also bring about peace whiles they continue with the court process.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThen the second one we have identified is to also talk to the Andani family because these are the two families identified to be in the chieftaincy dispute,\u201d he underscored.<\/p>\n
