Yagbonwura honours Bawumia again for his support and contributions to Gonjaland

The Overlord of Gonjaland, Yagbonwura Bi-Kunuto Jewu Soale, has, on behalf of Gonjaland, honoured the vice president and flagbearer of the NPP, Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, for his support and contributions to the development of Gonjaland.

At a meeting between the NPP flagbearer and the Savannah Regional House of Chiefs in Damongo on Wednesday, the Yagbonwura, who is also President of the Regional House of Chiefs, expressed profound gratitude to Dr. Bawumia for his significant contributions to the development of Gonjaland, which has seen rapid development springing up as a result of the creation of the Savannah Region.

"You are one of the illustrious sons of the Gonja Kingdom. You have paid your dues and I believe the relationship that existed between you and the Kingdom will further be enhanced,' the Yagbonwura told Dr. Bawumia.

"You played your part in the development of the Kingdom. You are my son and consider yourself as a son of Gonjaland. May your dreams be fulfilled.'

The Yagbonwura also commended Dr. Bawumia for his support and contributions towards his first Anniversary as Yagbonwura recently.

"It is proper, once again, to appreciate you for your immense support and invaluable contribution towards my first-anniversary celebration this year. To the general public, I extend my profound gratefulness to you for your contribution and support in making sure the first-anniversary celebration became an outstanding success.'

In appreciation of Dr. Bawumia's contributions to Gonjaland, the Yagbonwura presented a symbolic smock of appreciation, 100 tubers of yam and a bull.

In November last year, the Yagbonwura conferred the chieftaincy title Konukolewura, meaning Chief of Unity, on Dr. Bawumia, in recognition of the Vice President's efforts at promoting inclusivity.
