Former President, John Dramani Mahama has corroborated the widespread description of the late Mion-Lana Abdulai Mahama IV as a \u201cPeacemaker.\u201d<\/p>\n

Addressing a high-powered delegation from the Dagbon Kingdom at his office in Accra on Tuesday, August 23, 2022, the former President remarked, \u201cIt was with his cooperation we managed to set a breakthrough in the Dagbon peace process. It is my hope that the peace that he engineered and helped to restore in Dagbon will be continued by his successor.\u201d<\/p>\n

\"Mahama<\/figure>\n

\u201cMy government was committed to settling the Dagbon chieftaincy crisis. We built all the chiefs palaces but unfortunately, we lost power in 2016 and Nana Akuffo Addo continued. <\/p>\n

\u201cWe are all happy that eventually the Dagbon crisis has been resolved. If Dagbon progresses, the whole of the north will prosper,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

Mr. Mahama recalled his last telephone conversation with the late Mion-Lana, \u201cI spoke to him two days before he died.<\/p>\n

He said he hadn\u2019t been well and was on admission at the Korle-Bu Teaching Hospital. I was in the Eastern Region, and I promised to visit him on my return.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI was so shocked when I saw the breaking news on my phone that a prominent chief in Dagbon, the Mion-Lana had died. He used to call me his father. Allah knows best.\u201d<\/p>\n
