Emmanuel Armah-Kofi Buah, the Minister of Lands and Natural Resources, knelt before the Western Regional House of Chiefs to plead for unity among traditional leaders. A video shared by Nzema Updates on Facebook on Wednesday, April 15, 2026, shows the minister addressing the chiefs and urging them to set aside their differences for the region's development. He emphasized that ongoing disputes and court cases among chiefs hinder progress, stating, “It’s my plea again, and then I’ll plead again. We need unity, and that unity starts from this house.” The minister highlighted the Western Region's abundant natural resources, including oil, gold, and diamonds, and stressed the importance of unified leadership to harness them. He called on the chiefs to lead, assuring them of support from stakeholders, and expressed gratitude for a citation he received for resolving a five-year leadership dispute within the house. Social media users have reacted to the video, interpreting his gesture as a powerful appeal for peace and unity among traditional authorities.
