The visit aims to find sustainable solutions to the long-standing tensions in the area, which have plagued Bawku for years.
The conflict flared up again in November 2024, leading to increased unrest and concern among residents. President Mahama’s mission prioritizes fostering dialogue, rebuilding trust, and promoting peace among the feuding groups to restore stability and development in the region.
During his visit, President Mahama will engage in crucial discussions with the Yagbonwura and other key stakeholders. This meeting is expected to be a significant step towards resolving the conflict and promoting peace in the area.
President Mahama has shown his commitment to addressing the needs of the Bawku community in the past. In 2024, he promised to consider the demand for a new region, hospital, and university for the Kusaug people. He also pledged to complete abandoned projects, including the construction of a government hospital in Bawku.
The President’s visit to Bawku is a welcome development, and many are hopeful that it will mark the beginning of a new era of peace and development in the region.
