Traditional rulers of Bamboi visit President Mahama

A delegation of the traditional rulers of the Bamboi have paid a courtesy call on President John Mahama at the Castle in Accra.

They came to congratulate the President on his election and inauguration into office.

In a press statement on the visit, they say “The Chiefs and People of Bamboi share with pride and legitimate honour your electoral success and subsequent induction into the high office of the President of the Republic.

Having been part of your leadership beginning and grooming for this country, we genuinely believe your quest  to occupy the highest office of the land was not occasioned by the need to fill a position, but to fulfill a  purpose in response to leadership and national development.”

According to the statement, the President’s stunning rise to the highest office of the land is of historic importance, not only  in terms of bringing his charismatic attributes, youthful spirit and personality and passion for success to bear on the leadership of this country, “but also deepening the common cultural and modern political historic bond we share with you for putting  the hitherto unknown and least mentioned Bamboi and Bole on the political Map of Ghana,” it said.

The chiefs believe that he is mending a culturally diverse Bamboi and Bole as twin-traditional areas, whose attraction and twinning significance is inextricably linked to his personality and  leadership.

President Mahama had served as elected Member of Parliament for the Bole-Bamboi Constituency.
