Bolin-Lana Mahamadu Abdulai, the regent of the late Ya Na Mahamadu Abdulai IV, called on the Dagombas, especially supporters of the Abudu royal family of Dagbon, in the northern region, to accept the decision of the hat makers to choose Yo Na Abukari Mahama II. the Andani royal family as the new Ya Na.

Over the weekend, Bolin-Lana told the media that the work of the Committee of Eminent Leaders was an act of God and the will of God.

Bolin-Lana, who was one of four people who attempted to become overlord Dagbon, said that he was not bothered by the fact that he did not want to do anything. had not been chosen.

The head of the Andani royal family and former chief of the Savelugu traditional region, Yo Na Abukari Mahama II, was announced as the Ya Na-Elu to succeed Ya Na Abdulai Yakubu Andani II, who died after the long quarrel between the kingdoms Abudu and Andani. the families who are the two descendants of Na Gbewa.

A brief history of the new Ya Na

Little is known about Ya Na, who has just been circled, and who is now called Na Gariba II.

Na Abukari II is a son of Ya Na Mahan-Kpema, great-grandfather of the Dagbon Regent, Kampakuya Na Abdulai Yakubu Andani.

Ya Na Mahan-Kpema is the grandfather of the immediate past Ya Na Andani Yakubu II and father of Na Mahama Andani III (1968-1969).

Ya Na Abukari II is a paternal uncle of the late Ya Na Yakubu II, making him a grandfather of Kampakuya Na, regent of Na Abdulai Yakubu Andani II. This also makes Ya Na Abukari II the Da? -Kpema (head of the family) of the Andani royal family.

Ya Na Abukari II's mother was from Chaazaandaan-Yili, near Kulunkpegu, in the Northern Region.

Na Abukari II settled for the first time in Puriya, a village after Sang on Yendi Road, as a peasant.

In the late 1990s, his nephew, Ya Na Yakubu II, was the head of Kpunkpono, a small farming community in Mion District.

More than ten years later, when Savelugu became vacant, his grandson, then Kampakuya Na Abdulai Yakubu Andani, who was then the acting suzerain of Dagbon, named him Yo Na.

On Friday, January 18, 2019, Dagbon Kingmakers, led by Na Yeb & # 39; Ku? Na, chooses Na Alhaji Abukari as king of one of the oldest monarchies in sub-Saharan Africa.

It is thought that the new Ya Na is the reincarnation of Ya Na Gariba, one of the most successful Ya Nas in the history of Dagbon, because they both have the family name Mahama and that they were both over 70 years old before their ascent to Yeni.

Moreover, Na Gariba would have had a very healthy relationship with Asanteman, since an asante princess was married to Na Gariba.

Asantehene being at the head of a committee charged with directing Dagbon towards the ongoing peace processes, many Dagbon historians believe that it is a reincarnation of the relationship healthy between the two traditional kingdoms of the past.
