In order to bring about the necessary progress, the Buipewura, Mahama Abdulai Jinapor II, has urged unity among the Banda natives in the Bono Region.
The youngsters of Banda descent were warned by Buipewura Jinapor II not to allow themselves to be used as a tool of separation.
Buipewura was speaking at this year’s Kurubi Festival of the Banda people which was held in Wenchi.
This year’s festival was under the theme: “Unity Among Banda Community.”
The Banda people of Wenchi hold the yearly Kurubi festival to evaluate their progress and set strategies for the growth of their communities.
The theme was chosen to remind the Banda communities that they must unite if they are to make the necessary improvements.
Buipewura, Mahama Abdulai Jinapor II said he’s not happy over the disunity among indigenes of Banda.
“I am not happy because of the disunity among you, last year when I came here, I called for unity among you but nothing has changed. You are all one person. So why should there be disunity among you? I believe when I return next year there will be unity among you,” Buipewura, Mahama Abdulai Jinapor II said.
The Chairman of Ghana Hajj Board, Alhaji Ben Abdallah Banda who represented the Vice President Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia also emphasized the need for the people to come together in order to bring about the necessary progress.
“Unity is what we are looking for and if we are united, we will get the development that we want. I want to take this opportunity to thank all those who have travelled from far and near to participate in this year’s festival,” Bandahene said.
The Member of Parliament for Wenchi, Seidu Haruna also graced the occasion.
