He indicated that, the edifice is is of significant importance to the cultural heritage of the Dagbon Kingdom and the country as a whole as it would serve as a source of knowledge to current and future generations.

In a post on his facebook handle, McDan as he is affectionately known said: “Yendi is truly my home” and could not hesitate to visit home when he heard “about the the 10-year Dagbon Strategic Development Plan to complement the development initiatives and priority needs of Dagbon”.

Yendi is truly my home. Despite my thousand miles of journey around the world, Yendi always welcomes and embraces me with open arms. So when I heard about the the 10-year Dagbon Strategic Development Plan to complement the development initiatives and priority needs of Dagbon, I knew I had to visit my “father” and

Overlord of Dagbon, Ndan Ya Naa Abukari II to contribute my little.

I have always said that the Gbewa Palace is a national treasure, with significant importance to the cultural heritage of Dagbon, the Dagbon people as well as the country. That’s why I’m proud to be providing additional support for this upliftment to ensure future generations can enjoy and learn from the unique cultural heritage, traditions and customs that Dagbon has to offer.
