  "summary": "President John Dramani Mahama has inaugurated a five-member committee to oversee the implementation of the GH¢1 billion Bawku Revitalisation Fund. The committee, chaired by Finance Minister Dr Cassiel Ato Forson, aims to support infrastructure and development priorities in Bawku and surrounding districts. The fund was established following the report of the Otumfuo Mediation Committee in December 2025, which sought to address the prolonged conflict in Bawku that had disrupted public services and stalled several major development projects. With relative peace returning to the region, President Mahama said government is now positioned to revive stalled projects and accelerate development in the area.",
