The terms of reference in this request seem, by all accounts, to be exceptionally straightforward, however, there are such countless significant issues required for the Members of this Committee that it won't get the job done to go directly to whether or not Abugurago Azoka has been generally chosen or designated and introduced as Chief of the Kusasi Area.
As a matter of first importance, Abugurago Azoka is a Kusasi man, and no Kusasi man has filled in as Chief of Bawku in the past 150 years.
The subject of whether he was chosen or designated head of the district after such countless long stretches of Mamprusi predominance in Bawku merits more broad clarification and analysis.
Be that as it may, bosses and labourers were expected to be produced to chip away at the new Station Buildings.
Along these lines, in specific areas, for example, Teshie and Tanga, the British pushed the main Tindanas forward as bosses, however where the Tindanas were powerless and insufficient, pioneers must be brought from Mamprusi.
The Kusasis had to acknowledge these imported bosses,
however, Syme's words best portray their sentiments: "They didn't protest so their very own portion Tindanas going to the Naa with an attractive presentation and bringing back from Nalerigu consequently strong expansion to their obsessions, this helped everyone, except for Mamprusis to be shipped off request them about was very in opposition to every one of their thoughts regarding the matter."
The five bosses (Sinnebaga, Binduri, Bawku, Teshie, and Tanga) had little power beyond their following, and they are quick to admit it."
This has been the chieftaincy circumstance in the Kusais region as a general rule, and in Bawku town specifically, for the last hundred years and a half.
Be that as it may, the Kusasi fellow has not rested.
He has been walking agitatedly.
With dissatisfaction, he has been protesting and once in a while kicking.
At long last, the second has come, and his standards on opportunity and equity have developed.
He's been putting together and connecting.
Sanctuary expressed in his book "Local Races and their Rulers" that when untouchables overcome a spot, one of three things generally occurs: 1. Local people of the nation are consumed by the trespassers.
2. The trespassers are consumed by the nation's locals.
3. The country's native recovers their autonomy and drive out the trespassers.
J.K.G Syme, commenting on these phases of development of an attacked country and investigating them with Kusasi, expressed that the third interaction was nearly finished in Kusasi.
Individuals from this Committee will proceed to demonstrate that the subsequent interaction has happened and that the third cycle is as of now in progress.
The proof introduced to us exhibited that the Mamprusi Rulers never bring women from Mamprusis and are satisfied to wed Kusasis.
The individuals who call themselves Mamprusi Princes in Bawku today all have Kusasi Mothers, and scarcely any individuals can profess to be altogether Mamprusi through blood interface.
Along these lines, the nation's antagonism (Kusasi) has assimilated the Mamprusi trespassers.
The third interaction is additionally moving rapidly in Bawku and the encompassing regions at present.
The Kusasis appear to be in finished order of the circumstance.
They are, as they have generally been, by far most with regards to the populace.
They have bosses if they are perceived by the public authority.
They have instructed individuals, similar to some other clans in the North.
They have shaped an exceptionally impressive gathering called the Kusasis Youth Movement, which has more than 80,000 individuals, driven by their informed children and a couple of Kassis.
Their power in the Kusasi district is tremendous to such an extent that the Mamprusi Princes give off an impression of being in danger.
Be that as it may, for Nayiri's feeling of dread toward being plummeted from the Bungwa, the most impressive obsession nearby, anything might have happened to the Mamprusi ruler in the Kusasi region.
Subsequently, we accept that the Kusasis are recovering their autonomy and continuously driving out their Mamprusi trespassers.
The Committee accepts that the ongoing state of things in the Kusasi region has been facilitated, on the off chance that not cultivated, by the Mamprusis, who keep on accepting that the run of the mill Kusasi Man is idiotic.
The Mamprusi boss keeps on feeling that the Kusasis are unequipped for controlling themselves and that the Kusasis should perceive the Mamprusis as their rulers and experts. It ought to be referenced that the Mamprusis' disposition toward the Kusasis was horrendous and fails to impress anyone.
As would be natural for Yiremia, as he affirmed before the Committee: "I was brought into the world here, yet I've never heard the sound
"The region is for the most part involved by Kusasis, except for us (the Mamprusis), the bosses and sovereigns."
A Kusasi shouldn't control the Kusasis, as I would like to think.
They didn't begin with the chieftaincy.
They essentially have confidence in bountiful food creation and utilization."
He proceeded to say, "Tindana."
On the off chance that the Nayiri says no, nobody might have land here.
Upon the arrival of my arrangement, the social occasion at Nalerigu was a blend of Mamprusis, Moshies, and Hausas.
My establishment in Nalerigu is finished.
Following the occasion, I went to Kusasi to reign over the Kusasi and others in the Kusasi region.
I'm not intrigued by some other case since I as of now have what I need.
It's just a little unreasonable to administer over individuals who don't need me.
Home General was my title.
He expressed that since God made paradise and earth, no Kusasi man has had the honour of being named a boss, nor has the Kusasi man had the right of choosing their boss besides by arrangement from Nalerigu by the Nayiri, along these lines the Kusasis should not be conceded that extravagance today.
The Nangodi-Naba, Harold Amori Azuri, came straight away.
He is a Frafra pioneer who administers over his Frafra individuals.
He is a knowledgeable boss who has served on one designation to England.
In the wake of guaranteeing that the determination of bosses in the Kusasi and Frafra regions is the obligation of the Nayiri in Mamprussi, he uncovered that he is a Frafra head driving the Frafra public and that the Nayiri could never assign somebody outside the Frafra entryways to administer the Frafra public.
He expressed that it ultimately depended on the Kusasis to decide if they would choose their bosses or acknowledge Mamprusi men assigned by the Nayiri to lead them.
Different observers, including two individuals from Parliament, affirmed the opposer.
Mr Mumuni Bawumia, M.P., was the principal Member of Parliament.
He was a magnificent observer who gave a point by point clarification of the Nayiri's run of the mill technique for designating divisional heads in the Mamprusi State.
As indicated by him, Divisional Chiefs are never chosen but instead designated by the Nayiri, who controls the land in Kusasi.
He said that the title "Tindana" suggests "guardian" as opposed to "proprietor" of the property.
He guaranteed that the Nayiri own the domain from the Dagomba region in the south to the French zone in the north, as well as the land from the French boundary in the east to the River Nasia in the west.
He has little to no faith in the case that the Kusasis are constrained to work on Mamprusis ranches.
As indicated by Abugurago and Yiremia's proof, the Mamprusis have not been leaders of Bawku since the days of yore.
Their rule started with the task of Ali, the child of Na Tampouri of Nalerigu, to safeguard the shipping lane between the Mamprusi and Moshi countries.
The inquiry along these lines becomes whether Kusasi pioneers were controlling their kin when Ali showed up in Kusasi.
That's what the Committee trusts, but crude and unenterprising the Kusasis were back then, they had pioneers who practised authoritative and legal obligations over their kin.
It ought to be recollected that even the crudest animals have pioneered.
Assuming the record is accepted, the Kusasis in this manner coordinated themselves into groups of burglars and irritated slave dealers venturing out to and from the North, it is additionally acknowledged that these looters and outlaws had administrators.
At the point when Ali and along these lines the White rulers showed up in Kusasi, the populace was not adequately coordinated to battle the tranquil intrusion and in this manner submitted to the Mamprusi's rule under the Whiteman's general power.
There is no record of Mamprusi triumph, however, it is recognized that in 1895, the Kusasis in the Kugri division beat Na Beriga's military and incurred extraordinary setbacks for the Mamprusis.
Since the Whiteman's initial presence in Gambaga, extra threats and conceivably Mamprusis retaliation was incomprehensible.
The Committee accepts that the presence of Mamprusi Chiefs on Kusasi soil has been excruciating.
As indicated by J.K.G Syme's History of the Kusasi:
"It is far-fetched that the Kusasis would have acknowledged them by any stretch of the imagination on the off chance that the Mamprusi Chiefs had not been forced upon them by the Na Tampouri, whom the Kusasis respected with a particular proportion of veneration."
The Committee acknowledges the Kusasi declaration that Mamprusi Chiefs were moved on them by the Whiteman, and that the Nayiri took the chieftaincy with the Whiteman's help.
This is upheld by an articulation in Syme's History of the Kusasis: "It has been hypothesized that on schedule to come, these Tindana (Landowners and ministers) would have developed into genuine pioneers."
They never got the opportunity to do it in their sluggish way, be that as it may, since the British out of the blue showed up in Gambaga and afterwards in Kusasi, requesting the Chiefs.
They'd found them in Gambaga and expected to track down them in Kusasi, however, they weren't there."
Generally speaking, this witness was trustworthy and genuinely contended for the Mamprusi Rulers.
As the State Secretary of Mamprusi, he hoped to know a great deal about the state's interior undertakings and satisfied the Committee with his insightful presence of mind.
Mr Awuni Jambedo, the second Member of Parliament, was the head of the Princes Bawku who introduced a request to the Government testing Yiremia's designation as Bawku-Naba.
In the wake of perceiving that the matter had become one between the Kusasis and the Mamprusis, he and a few of the request's signatories seem to have adjusted their psyches and proposed to affirm in
