Let's break the silence surrounding chieftaincy issues in the Sissala area, Minister calls coconutnews

   The issue of chieftaincy is quite a sensitive issue, it is one that many people hardly talk about because of the implications attached to it. It is therefore not surprising that people are quite tight-lipped about chieftaincy issues in the Sissala Area.  Some people believe this attitude will not help the situation since there are always confrontations any time a chief passes on and a new one is to be enskinned. Most communities are always divided on this matter making it difficult for the new chief to begin his work. It is even worse when politician show partisan interest in such circumstances making the situation very difficult to solve, sometimes leading to deaths and gun fights in some communities in the area. But should the situation be left like that? Should the youth do something or sit and watch the situation helplessly without any effort to help reduce the tensions that arise in such situations.
   The deputy regional minister for Upper West region Hon. Amidu Chinnia has weighed into the debate of making chieftaincy institutionalized in the Sissala area to reduce the tensions created by it, he was speaking today at an annual meeting organized by the youth of Tumu to review the activities of the youth in the Sissala East area. He said the era were people shy away from this chieftaincy issues was over and therefore charged the youth to see how they could institutionalized this matter to prevent future confusion. Hon. Chinnia said when this is done, come 20-50 years time their children will know the succession criteria in each area. He said the Sissala Youth Forum and Sissala Union, can sit with the various stakeholders to plan on the gates and how it will move from one gate to the other to discuss these matters. 
   The minister also talked about how the government was dealing with this challenge and how they can help reduce the level of poverty in the Sissala area. He mentioned planting for foods and jobs and other social interventions that the government was prosecuting to better the lives of people in the Sissala area and Ghana as a whole.
