Mr Musah said the Vice President after the inauguration of the Regional House would interact with traditional leaders within the Constituency.

Dasebre Atamafowiese Kwame Bonja II, Paramount Chief of Chonki Traditional Area has expressed gratitude to President Akufo-Addo for facilitating the constitutional process, which led to the creation of the new Oti Region.
