"If Dagbon is to see lasting peace, the leaders of both Abudu and Andani should use the mass media positively to tune the minds of the people towards peace."

Mr Iddrisu suggested that well-wishing leaders from both families should unite and deal with troublemakers to ensure that there was lasting peace in Dagbon.

He described the enskinment of the leaders from the Andani Gate as good and welcoming news for the whole of Dagbon and that the Abudu family would give its fullest cooperation, support and respect to the Regency.
