He emphasized the need for all stakeholders and residents of Bimbila, to exercise maximum restraint before, during and after the burial.<\/p>\n
He reassured residents of Nanung of government\u2019s neutrality in handling the Bimbila chieftaincy dispute.<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, a statement signed by Bakpab Naa Nantogmmah Adam, on behalf of the Dasana family, warned that they will resist any attempt to bury the late Nakpa-Naa Salifu Dawuni as overlord of Bimbila.<\/p>\n
\u201cNakpaa-Naa Salifu Dawuni died as a Nakpaa-Naa, hence should be buried as Nakpaa-Naa and not Bimbila Naa.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cWe recalled that the President, Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo Addo in his recent visit to some parts of the Northern Region, indicated that his government will not interfere in any chieftaincy matters,<\/p>\n
\u201cHe even warned that he the President will not hesitate to sanction any of his appointees who meddles in any chieftaincy issues, we pause here to ask whether Bimbila chieftaincy crisis is part of the chieftaincy issues that His Excellency was talking about?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cWe suspect strongly that some politicians in Nanung are behind these evil plans to forcefully bury the late Nakpaa-Naa Salifu Dawuni in Bimbila against the norms and customs of the traditional area.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe are appealing to President Akufo Addo. Please walk your talk by bringing such politicians to book before they turn the entire Nanung into chaos.\u201d<\/p>\n
