Dagomba of Ghana
The homeland of the Dagbamba is called Dagbon. The overlord of the Dagbon Traditional Kingdom is the Ya-Na, whose court and administrative capital is at Yendi. Lacking a writing culture, Dagbamba are one of the cultural groups with a very sophisticated oral culture woven around drums and other musical instruments. Thus most of its history, until quite recently, has been based on oral tradition with drummers as professional historians. Dagbon is heavily influenced by Islam.
Ministry Obstacles
To follow Christ in a Muslim tribe is to risk much of what is important in life. It's not a trivial commitment.
Outreach Ideas
Stories from scripture, told by Christians who genuinely care for the Dagbamba people, can be used greatly by God's Spirit.
Pray for the followers of Christ
Pray the Christian believers among the Dagbamba will fellowship faithfully together, growing into Christ-likeness, being zealous to know Him and serve Him.
Pray for the entire people group
Pray the Dagbamba tribe may be able to send their children to school, and have clean drinking water and adequate food.
