Everything about The Dagaare totally explained
The
Dagaare (also spelled Dagare, Dagarti or, Dagao) are an ethnic group in the
West African nation of
Ghana.
History
The evidence of oral tradition is that the Dagara are a stock of the Mole-Dagbani group which migrated to the semi-arid
Sahel region in the fourteenth century CE. They are believed to have further migrated to the lower northern part of the region in the seventeenth century due to geographic reasons. They consist of ten clans encompassing over one million people. Arbitrary colonial borders placed them in northwestern
Ghana and southern
Burkina Faso. Until the latter part of the nineteenth century when institutional chieftaincy evolved, the Dagara had a council of elders form of governance. In modern Ghana, the Dagara inhabit the following paramouncies in the Upper West Region: Nandom, Lawra, Jirapa, Kaleo, Nadowli, Daffiema and Hamile.
