<\/p>\nPresident elect, Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo Addo has reassured the chiefs and people of Dagbon that Dagombas reconciliation and unity remained his primary objective.<\/p>\n
He said Dagombas could count on him as a unifier under whose watch the Dagbon State will redeem its past glory as one of the nation\u2019s enviable traditional kingdoms.<\/p>\n
President elect, Nana Akufo Addo was addressing the chiefs and people of Dagbon at the Dagbon Regent\u2019s palace in Yendi as part of his three days \u201cThank you tour\u201d of the three regions of the north.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
He sounded emphatic, \u201cI told you when I was here the last time that I am not a Dagomba, so I am not Andani and I am not Abudu. I have no interest in the chieftaincy matters of Dagbon.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cMy only interest is the peace and welfare of Dagbon and the peace and welfare of Ghana and if there is anything I can do to normalize the situation here, it is my duty to do it.\u201d<\/p>\n
He recalled that the late overlords of Dagbon, Yaa-Naa Mahamadu Abdulai and Yaa-Naa Yakubu Andani were his trusted friends for which reason he will galvanize the two Regents and the people of Dagbon for constructive purpose.<\/p>\n
