Mr Akilu Sayibu stated that the late Vice President was so passionate about the development and also peace and welfare of the North.
According to him, the presence of chiefs from both the Abudu and Andani gates as well as members from the various political parties, especially the NDC and the NPP, is something that will particularly excite the late Vice President of Ghana.

The late Aliu Mahama was a lover of soccer and did a lot for the development of football in not only Northern Ghana but also the entire country.
