Former President and National Democratic Congress (NDC) Flagbearer John Dramani Mahama was appointed last Friday, October 13, as the Development Chief of the Penyi traditional area in the Ketu North Municipality.
During a lively durbar of chiefs and residents of Penyi, Mr. Mahama was legally seated and outdoored with the title “Togbi Dunenyo I, the Nugoryifia of the Penyi Traditional Area.”
Mr. Mahama, who served as the main guest of honour at the recently finished Penyi Nugoryiza, was greeted by a sizable crowd as they entered the village while dancing and drumming.

The paramount chief of Penyi, Togbiga Dadzi V, commended Mr. Mahama for accepting their invitation. He used the opportunity to thank the NDC for a number of neighbourhood development programmes and to ask for more when the NDC returned to power.
Penyi Nugoryiza is a yearly celebration of the chiefs and people of Penyi, one of the four traditional territories in the Volta Region’s Ketu North Municipality.
