Former President John Dramani Mahama has urged the people of the Savannah Region to always come together after elections and work towards one common goal despite their different political backgrounds.
He called for unity among the people to push for the development of the Savannah Region.
John Dramani said the people of Southern Ghana see all people of the north as one and therefore call them “Ntafo”, which means twins and which for him is a good word, but unfortunately, the people don’t see themselves as such and tend to divide themselves.
Former President John Dramani Mahama made these comments at Sawla in the Sawla-Tuna-Kalba District of the Savannah Region on Monday, November 28, 2022, when he attended the final funeral rites of his Sister Hajia Siata Bakari, who also happens to be the mother of the Savannah Regional Chairman of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Alhaji Imoro Seidu ‘Man Blessing’.
The Minister for Lands and Natural Resources, who doubles as a Member of Parliament for Damongo constituency, Hon Samuel Abu Jinapor, speaking at the funeral, implored all in the north and the Savannah region to demonstrate unity in political diversity for growth and development.
Hon Jinapor said in southern Ghana, the people understand politics and do away with hatred after elections to pave way for development.
He called on Savannah Region to embrace unity in diversity because “we are one people whether NDC or NPP”.
