A former Minister of Food and Agriculture, Alhaji Mohammed Muniru Limuna has grabbed a prestigious chieftaincy title known as “Sandape Wura,” to wit, Chief of Staff of the Damongo Paramountcy.
The Damongo Traditional Council conferred the authority on Alhaji Limuna in recognition of his unflinching contribution to the socioeconomic development of the Damongo traditional area and beyond.
The official installation is expected to be held after the Holy month of Ramadan in Damongo, the traditional capital of Gonja Traditional Area, which doubles as the Savannah Regional capital.
He will thereafter act as the second in command in the council of elders of the Damongo Traditional Council.
The famous Alhaji Mohammed Muniru Limuna was born on August 8, 1967, in the Langbonto Family and he is the great grandson of Damongo Wura Dange.
Alhaji Limuna is a product of the London School of Economics and Political Science with an MSc in Health Policy Planning and financing (HPPF).
Until his elevation to the Food and Agriculture Ministry, Alhaji Mohammed Muniru Limuna served as Upper East and Northern Regional Minister.
In the Dagbon traditional area, Alhaji Limuna is revered for the role he played in resurrecting the Dagbon peace and mediation at the Manhyia palace.
Under his watch as the then Chairman of the Northern Regional Security Council, he succeeded in uniting Dagombas and masterminded the construction of six new temporary palaces in Yendi, the traditional capital of Dagbon.
