But government has dropped hint of performing the final funeral rituals of the late two overlords of Dagbon, Yaa-Naa Mahamadu Abdulai and Yaa-Naa Yakubu Andani II.

The outspoken Northern Regional Minister, Alhaji Mohammed Muniru Limuna told Citi News government’s agenda on uniting Dagbon was on course.

He said government will fully implement the roadmap instituted by the Asantehene led three eminent chiefs committee mediating the Dagbon chieftaincy deadlock.

Alhaji Mohammed Muniru Limuna urged leaders of the Abudu and Andani Royals in Dagbon to ignore the machinations of invisible hands and cooperate with government to end their feud.

“We are going forward: the people who are in the centre of these events are the two Regents. They have to perform their father’s funeral and we are dealing with them.”

Alhaji Limuna stated, “They are cooperating with us and if we find out somebody is trying to thwart our efforts or cross our line we will crush him: we are prepared to move, we must just get this thing done once and for all.”

“By November we should be able to finish the funerals: others are talking about it been in the rainy season and that is not possible that funerals are performed during rainy season and I told them is not true: we are ready to provide the necessary food items for them to perform the funerals,” he assured.
