The Bissa Chief of New Bortianor/New Weija Suallah Saeed Sare has been formally crowned at a special ceremony held at the Ali Dabre Palace in Accra, after months of being chosen for the royal task.
It was a moment characterized by blessings and praises, but an aftermath marked with merry and jollity as the young and affable Bissa man picked up another leadership gauntlet.
The business mogul went through the unique Bissa traditions in the presence of all those who matter in Bissa affairs in the region.
Over thirty chiefs, including the Zongo Chief of New Bortianor, attended the coronation ceremony, which was administered by the Greater Accra Bissa Imam Hassan Uthman Nombre.
He was officially conferred with the title of “Kir” with regal power, automatically becoming a member of the Greater Accra Council of Bissa Chiefs and one of the few with distinct jurisdiction.
He became the first Bissa Chief of the Greater Accra Surbub and had his two wives accompany him for the historic event.
The affable Sare man grabs an additional leadership mantle following unblemished service, making him the man for the people.
His ascension to the seat of leadership of New Bortianor and New Weija comes on the back of an exceptional role as the “Sardawna” of the Zongo Chief of the community.
Saturday’s coronation was the culmination of days of rituals that included a Quranic recitation on Friday.
Hundreds of people, including family and friends, attended the ceremony, which was under the auspices of Chief Ali Dabre III, who is the president of the Greater Accra Council of Bissa Chiefs.
There is an established order for who becomes a Bissa Chief in the region, and Sare’s tenure comes with full recognition by the Dabre Palace.
He was chosen to be the Chief of Bissas by the Zongo Chief of the New Bortiano community, but that power of installation lies in the hands of the Regional Council of Bissa Chiefs.

It comes at a time when the Bissa fraternity is on a mission to build strong institutions to spur its “Zekula” agenda to higher heights.
He is already in the position of “Sardawna” (Prime Minister) of the Bortianor Zongo Community and looks poised for the double roles to the benefit of society.
His new mantle of leadership is specifically to steer affairs for the benefit of Bissas.
Chief Suallah Sare is a business mogul with exceptional leadership traits and comes in as one of the youthful Bissas to hold sway in the Greater Accra Suburb.
The ceremony also saw the display of the beautiful Bissa culture, as many men and women made glamorous appearances at the event to add more color to the scene.
The day attracted a huge presence of people, with many traveling from far and near to witness the inauguration of a new leader for Bissas.
His assumption of the seat of leadership in New Bortianor will make him a new central player in the steps to expand the influence of the Bissa fraternity across the country.
