Africa-Press – Ghana. The Asantehene, Otumfuo Osei Tutu II, is set to present the final mediation report on the long-standing Bawku conflict to President John Dramani Mahama.
It is a significant step toward resolving one of the country’s most protracted communal disputes.
For decades, tensions between Kusasis and Mamprusis have strained social cohesion and hindered development at Bawku and its surrounding communities.
Otumfuo has played a central role in facilitating dialogue between the factions, earning wide commendation for his commitment to fostering peace.
Information made available to the Ghana News Agency (GNA) indicates that the Asantehene has meticulously reviewed submissions and reports from both sides.
He underscored the importance of a thorough and impartial assessment to ensure that the views, grievances, and expectations of each faction are accurately and fairly captured.
Following this exhaustive scrutiny, Otumfuo will transmit the comprehensive mediation report to President Mahama, whose involvement underscores the government’s resolve to address the underlying issues and work toward lasting peace and stability.
While the exact date for the submission remains undisclosed, anticipation continues to build among stakeholders.
In the meantime, all parties have been urged to remain calm and exercise restraint as the process advances.
Authorities warn that maintaining peace is essential to prevent any flare-up of tensions while the nation awaits the President’s response to the mediation findings.
Earlier in the day, scenes of premature jubilation were observed among supporters from both factions, fueled by expectations of a favourable outcome.
Officials have since cautioned against such celebrations, stressing that only the official communication from the Presidency will determine the next phase of the mediation effort.
The hope among many is that the collaborative efforts of the Asantehene and national leadership will ultimately usher in a new era of harmony, trust, and cooperation between the Mamprusi and Kusasi communities.
