Efforts by the Asantehene, Otumfuo Osei Tutu II, to mediate the long-standing Bawku conflict have been temporarily postponed, with sources at the Manhyia Palace citing complexities surrounding the chieftaincy dispute as the reason for the delay.
The mediation sessions were originally scheduled to begin on Monday, April 28, and were expected to mark a significant step toward resolving the violent and protracted conflict in the Upper East town.
However, the high-stakes meetings have been pushed to next week, pending further arrangements.
Although the Manhyia Palace has yet to issue an official statement confirming the new dates, sources familiar with the peace process say consultations are ongoing to prepare the ground for the next round of dialogue.
