On October 14, 2024, President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo received a rousing welcome from thousands of enthusiastic supporters in Damongo during his two-day tour of the Northern, Northeast, and Savannah regions.

The people of Gonjaland expressed immense gratitude for the establishment of the Savannah Region, a long-awaited development that came after decades of unfulfilled promises, even during the presidency of a local leader.

As crowds gathered to celebrate, there was widespread appreciation for the collaborative efforts between past and present leaders of the Jakpa stool, as well as recognition of the swift rise of local son Samuel Abdulai Jinapor, which has led to significant progress and enhanced livelihoods in the region.

Signals of joy and appreciation drew thousands of ecstatic crowds to flood the streets of Damongo when the President visited the area on Monday, October 14, 2024, as part of a two-day visit.
