Ya-Na enskins Mustapha Sanah Chief of Dalun

 The Overlord of Dagbon, Ya-Na Abukari Mahama II, has enskinned Mr Mus­tapha Sanah, a development man­agement specialist, as the Chief of Dalun, under a traditional title Dalun-Lana Tapha Mahamadu II.

Dalun-Lana Tapha Mahamadu II, known in private life as Mr Mustapha Sanah, is the Executive Chairman of Northern Develop­ment and Democratic Institute (NDDI), a premier liberal dem­ocratic public policy think-tank based in Tamale, in the Northern Region.

During the enskinment at the forecourt of the Gbewaa Palace on Tuesday, many people extolled Dalun-Lana Tapha Mahamadu II as a pragmatist and a progressive royal of Dagbon who prioritises peace, development and intra and inter-ethnic harmony, and co-exis­tence as the surest way forward for the sustainable development of the Dagbon State and North­ern Ghana.

The Dalun-Lana Tapha Ma­hamadu II served the Ya-Na Abu­kari II creditably, and the Dagbon Traditional State in many roles.

He served in many commit­tees including finance, protocol and publicity during the investi­ture of Ya-Na Abukari II in 2019.

He is a speech writer at the office of the Ya-Na and also co-ordinated the external relations affairs of the King of Dagbon.

Dalun-Lana Tapha Ma­hamadu II is a member of the royal family of Dagbon. He was born to His Royal Highness, Di­are-Lana Amadu-Sanah, a grand­son of Diare-lana Dahamani.

His Royal Highness Di­are-lana Dahamani, a respected chief of Diare and an astute Islamic scholar and astronomist was a grandson of Ya-Na Andani Jangbariga, from his famous daughter, Princess Pagsan, Sister of Pakpan Shetu, mother of Yelzol-Lan Lagfu and Tijo-Naa Abdulai.

By royal lineage, the parents and grandparents of Dalun-Lana Tapha Mahamadu II are referred to as pagbihi, to wit, royals from the princesses.

Dalun Traditional Area is a farming area and a strategic geo-political zone located at the North-West of Tamale, along the White Volta, and near Kumbun­gu.
