Kpembe, Ghana – The Paramount Chief of the Kpembe Traditional area of Gonja Kpembewura Bismark Haruna Bangbage (I) has assured President Nana Akufo-Addo that the people of Kpembe and Salaga accept his decision to designate Damongo, the seat of the King of Gonja (Yagbonwura) as the Regional Capital of Savannah Region.
A statement signed by the Spokesperson of the Kpembewura Mr Rashid Braimah Soale says the Kpembewura said he and the people of Kpembe and Salaga wish to applaud President Nana Akufo-Addo for the creation of the Savannah Region out of the Northern Region, a dream previous leaders of Gonjaland fought for about 40 years ago.
The Kpembewura unreservedly apologised to President Nana Akufo-Addo, the Yagbongwura and the entire Gonjaland and the people of Ghana for the unruly behavior put up by the youth of Salaga that resulted in the burning down of the NPP party office.
Kpembewura appealed to the Security Agencies to carry out thorough investigation and bring the perpetrators to book.
