NPP expresses gratitude to Yagbonwura for lifting ban on Abu Jinapor
The New Patriotic Party has thanked the Gonja King, Yagbonwura Bii-Kunuto Jewu Soale I, for lifting the ban on the Member of Parliament for Damongo, Samuel Abu Jinapor, from visiting the Jakpa palace and other palaces within the Gonja kingdom.
The Gonka king on Friday, August 2, 2024, lifted the ban on the MP, who is also the Minister for Lands and Natural Resources, giving him access or allowing him to lead any government official to any palace in Gonjaland.
In July this year, Samuel Abu Jinapor was banned by Yagbonwura from visiting or leading any government official to any palace in Gonjaland for his alleged disrespect to the king and some chiefs in Gonjaland.
However, a government delegation visited Yagbonwura to seek his forgiveness.
The government delegation included the Minister of Chieftaincy and Religious Affairs, Stephen Asamoah Boateng, the Savannah Regional Minister, Saeed Muhazu Jibril, the MCE for West Gonja, Karim Musah Kusubari, and the Savannah Regional Chairman of the NPP, Alhaji Iddrisu Sulemana.
The Savannah Regional Branch of the party expressed gratitude to the Yagbonwura for being magnanimous and for blessing Abu Jinapor, a son of the Gonja land, and accepting him as a proud grandson.
According to the party, this confirms its belief that Abu Jinapor, a prince of the Gonja land, respects the chieftaincy institution in general and the chiefs and people of Gonja in particular.
The party also took the opportunity to congratulate the MP for his humility, respect, and commitment to the customs and traditions of the Gonja Kingdom.
It further expressed gratitude to all the individuals who played a role in ensuring the ban on the MP was lifted.
“The regional party wishes to thank sincerely the President of the Republic, H.E. Nana Akufo-Addo, for his intense interest in this matter and for sending a high-powered delegation to the Jakpa palace to resolve the matter.
“The party is also grateful to the Minister for Chieftaincy and Religious Affairs, Stephen Asamoah Boateng, who led the government delegation to meet with the Yagbonwura to resolve the issue. Asamoah Boateng has shown that he is a peacebroker and a leader truly committed to unity,” the statement added.
