A giant billboard thanking President Nana Akufo-Addo for his role in ending the over decade old chieftaincy dispute in Dagbon in the Northern Region has popped up in Accra.
The billboard sited in front of Afrikiko near the Jubilee House, has the photo of the new Ya-Naa Abukari Mahama II and Nana Akufo-Addo with a smiling face, with the inscription “Dagbon Thanks You Mr. President”.
It is unclear who the sponsors of the billboard are but believed to be coming from the people of Dagbon in Accra. Similar billboards are said to have been mounted along the Accra-Kumasi highway.
Many people have commended President Akufo-Addo for his instrumental role in leading the people of Dagbon to open a new peace chapter in their lives after 17 years of chieftaincy conflict that left many dead, others maimed and properties destroyed.

Please give us a break, though the president contribute to the peace of Dagbon,it is not Dagbon people or the chiefs who erected those bill boards. It is a fact that those bill boards were erected by the government as usual like the free SHS billboards and making it as one of their achievement without even acknowledging key players like Otumfou and others.
Even if it is coming from the Presidency, it is a FACT
We are happy for the calmness in Dagbon. However, just like he wants JB Danquah, Paa Grant and any other persons to be mentioned and celebrated in the struggle to Ghana's independence, that's the same way Nana Addo should glorify the efforts of Kuffour, Mills, Mahama and himself for the peace in Dagbon. Finally, Dagbon didn't effect that billboard...the headline is misleading. Free SHS got a billboard and many others. This is coming from the presidency. Please accord us some level of intelligence at least! Grateful.
I'm so so happy, Dagbon are grateful to the president for leading them to peace! Peace be with Dagbon forever! The billboard is so beautiful and inspiring! mo'ani abue!
NEVER AGAIN SHOULD DAGBON ALLOW ITSELF TO BE DIVIDED AS GREAT NATION. NEVER AGAIN SHOULD DAGOMBAS ALLOW THEMSELVES TO BE SEEN AS INCAPABLE TO RESOLVE THEIR PROBLEM WITH REASON AND IN PEACE. NEVER AGAIN SHOULD DAGBON ALLOW ITSELF TO BE EXPLOITED AND MANIPULATED BY THE SELFISH POLITICIANS. NEVER AGAIN SHOULD GADBON ALLOW ITSELF TO BE DESCRIBED AS VIOLENT REGION. NEVER AGAIN SHOULD DAGOMBAS BE SEEN AS UNFRIENDLY AND UNGRATEFUL.
