Alhaji Alhassan Issahaku, the outgoing Northren Regional Coordinating Director, introduced Mr Abudu to staff members of the Northern Regional Coordinating Council (NRCC) at a staff durbar at the regional office in Tamale.

Alhaji Issahaku, who is proceeding on retirement, said it was fulfilling to leave office unblemished having served in the interest of the region as the Regional Coordinating Director (RCD) for many years.
