The Mamprugu overlord has issued an appeal for peace and togetherness among the various northern Ghanaian tribes.
When he gave his blessing to The Taste Of Afrika’s Tamale Cultural Oneness Festival, he made this statement.
The northern part of Ghana is home to a number of ethnically and culturally different communities. However, despite the diversity of the Northern regions, many of their cultures have common customs. In this category are festivals like the Damba and the Fire Festival.
The nonprofit organization Taste of Afrika is hosting the Cultural Oneness Festival in Tamale to bring people together and highlight the region’s rich cultural heritage.
Recently, Tengol K. Kplemani, CEO of The Taste of Afrika, paid a visit to the palace of the overlord of the Mamprugu Traditional Area. The overlord took the opportunity to appeal to all the tribes in the north to put aside their tribal differences and work together for the benefit of the people and the country.
He went on to remark that the people of Ghana’s northern region have an obligation to promote and gain from their cultural heritage abroad since they are the home of Ghana’s longest royal dynasty.
This is why he thinks other chiefs and traditional rulers should attend the Cultural Oneness Festival in Tamale, Ghana, on December 6-9, 2023.
