Gomoa Buduburam in the Central Region is set to crown its Bissa Chief in the person of Alhaji Abdul Fatawu Adam Dabre, in a colourful coronation to be held on Saturday, 19th September.
His appointment comes under the sanction of the Buduburam Zongo Chief, Nurudeen Bansi, who is also a Bissa.
Adam Dabre was named as the Bissa Chief months ago but Saturday will mark his formal investiture with regal power, becoming the first Bissa Chief for the community, popularly known as Liberia Camp.
Four other leadership positions, including an office of an Imam, are slated for inauguration on the day, making it a packed event for Bissas and their neighbours in the Kasoa suburb.
It comes at a time the Bissa fraternity is in a mission to build strong institutions to spur its “Zekula” agenda to the higher heights.
After Saturday, Alhaji Abdul Fatawu Adam Dabre will be conferred with the “Kir” title and will become one of the youthful Bissas to hold sway in the community.
His assumption to the throne will make him a central player in the steps to expand the influence of the Bissa fraternity across the country.
Other positions to be inaugurated include “Kir Letaaza” (Galaadima), which will go to Yussif Adam Dabre, Abdullai Mohammed Zanzeh will be crowned as the “Dassammar Kir” (Youth leader), Saada Hamida Sari Zirbarma will take the mantle of “Lubanno Lemagan” (Magajia) with Abubakar Fuseini been confirmed as the Bissa Imam for the community.
They come along with diverse individual qualities to the development of Bissas in the community.
The ceremony to be held at the Buduburam Durbar Ground will see the display of the beautiful Bissa culture to add more colour to the event.
The day is expected to attract a huge presence of people, with many people traveling from far and near to witness the inauguration of new set of leaders for Bissas.
