    1. Ga's migrated from Israel. During our journey, some settled in various places because they couldn't continue the journey. So some settled in Nigeria, Mali and Togo. So in some part of this countries, Ga names can be seen there as well as a very close tradition and language. 2. The people of the Volta Region have a part of their history from Ga's also. During the migration, there was one of our father's by name AYI, when he got to the now Ewe land, he said he is tired and cannot continue the journey so he stayed there. So he was like, "Ayi mɛ gbe", meaning, I Ayi will stop here, can't continue. So in the Ewe language, "mɛ gbe" means, I can't continue or stop. With so doing we the Ga's call the Ewe's Ayi mɛ gbe which with time has evolved to what we say Ayigbe. 3. Also most of our tradition like the kpokpoi, homowo etc is celebrated in a part Egypt. 4. Now concerning what the Priest said about Ga's not having Kings but we have Priests. Like I said earlier that Ga's originally are from Egypt. We can all recall that in the early times before Christ, the Israelites didn't have Kings, all they had were Priests like Moses that led them to the promise land. So same as Ga's, we're not Kingship oriented but ours is the Priest, but now due to evolution, Kings have evolved. 5. Another interesting thing about why Akans call Ga's "Nkraŋ fuo" is because, when we were coming, we were many, so when they saw us that plenty, they were like, look at how they're coming plenty like "kra (which is one of the species of ants)". So from that we got the name nkraŋ from the Akans. I've just summarised it because of plenty typing😂😂😂. DISCLAIMER: I have summarised most of the history I have made mention and the others I have talked about in this comment. There is more to it. Surely as Nii proceeds unvealing and much details will be given in the videos to come up. Thanks

    Please, note that the name Yemo is also associated with the people of D.R.Congo.The family of former President Mobutu of D.R.Congo ( formally Zaire), has YEMO in their family and they even have a hospital called YEMO HOSPITAL ln the 1930's, many people from the Gold Coast went to the Congo as carpenters , masons an other professions.They mostly include people from the town of LABADI( now LA ) in Accra, Ghana. Our old men who went to Congo told us that they left many children in the then D.R. Congo. Ask anybody from D.R. Congo and he will tell you about about the YEMO'S in their country. Check it out .

    You're an Igodomigodo meaning the key to the kingdom, your ancestors left their ancestral land when the Oba captured our land and was using us for sacrifices so many ran away like the GA people. And the funny thing is the Oba is still in your ancestral land doing the same evil his ancestors has done till date that is why we want the blood sucking palace down and them going back to their land in Ile Ife so we can unite back all our brothers and sisters that he sold to slavery all over the world Shalom.

    I see that you don't upload as much anymore, but I hope this comment reaches you! Thank you so much for this video! I'm an African American from the West Coast whose father is of the Ga tribe and I have many family members in Accra! Unfortunately, they practice Christianity like my American counterparts, which makes me assume that they may not practice this religion. I'm more interested in this traditional and spiritual part of the Ga tribe and would love to visit my father's hometown someday (his family lives near the designer coffin people if that helps). I'm not sure if I'm destined for the priesthood or anything but this is all so interesting! I've subscribed and am looking forward to more videos!

    Ga traditional religion is not the same as Christianity. The white man merely brought Christianity to us, it is not their religion. Before the bible came to us, we believed that all these spirits Wulomo has mentioned, are from God. We now know that God has chosen ONE way by which ALL must come to him. If we look in the same bible which Nii Wulomo quoted from, it says in 2 corinthians 5 vs.19 that God through Christ is reconciling the world to himself ......including we Ga-Adangbes. It's no joke. I am grateful we came out of this to freedom through Christ Jesus our Saviour. Awo

    It is not our way to write down our ways. We have our culture handed down from the elders to the generation. A respectable child sits at the foot of the elders. Thats how they learn wisdom and tradition and the responsibility of the culture is handed down. Then you have pride and confidence in who you are as a child of the community. Our ways and language are not lost. It is just that those children who strayed away to learn the ways and traditions of the foreigner never learn from the elders. We communicate by symbols, thats why they have not been able to corrupt the tradition. If you will notice every problem and conflict we have as Ga's, is because we challenge the way of the old by what is written by the foreigner about us and our ways and we the children now do the forbidden of pointing a finger against the ways of the ancient. Come back home.

    It’s clear the Ga respect their ancestors and still honor them. I’m curious then why there aren’t Ga customs to honor the thousands that were sold away into slavery. Were they not also ancestors of this Priest? As an AA I want to hear how the Ga reconciled with the losses of so many of its people? What traditions mark losses and give thanks and honor for our shared ancestors who survived chattel slavery in America, what libations does he pour out to those ancestors? My problem is that Ghanaians don’t really seem to view AAs ancestors as their own true blood relatives but as other. He says AAs want to know where we’re from, true but as a priest does he not want to know what happened to his people? Healing AAs would be healing himself as well, we’re connected but I don’t sense he feels that he himself is incomplete with the children of his stolen ancestors.

    @@ednaclottey Somewhere in the Americas you have buried ancestors and living relatives. There are great men and women, Black Americans & Caribbeans who are your people but you can't celebrate and honor them among your Chiefs, Priests and Queen Mothers because that knowledge is as lost to you as much as it is to us. What would it mean to Ga children to know that some Black Americans scientists and inventors whose genuis improved the lives of humanity are their tribesmen? I want Ga kids and all Africans to be fiercely proud knowing a Black man, an African descendant in America designed the light bulb, the 1st person in ALL of human history to do a successful surgery to repair a human heart was Black doctor and he was born a slave. The lost is tremendous to both of us, Black Americans and continental Africans, and that is the ultimate evil of what was done. Ga should learn African American history, it is the history of your people in a new world, you owe it to yourselves and to our shared ancestors.

    @@Erica-ls7bp in other words, you want your history to dominate, your achievements to be the achievements that everyone thinks about. How self centred. As usual the Westerners think their history is Supreme and only their stories matter. We have our own Pioneer doctors, surgeons, philosophers etc. The first African to get a degree in the areas of mining, philosophy etc were Ghanaians - Kwasi Boakye, the first black mining engineer in the world, graduated from the Royal Academy in Holland as a mining engineer in 1847 despite being beaten up on the street and bullied at school. After graduating he was discriminated against by his superior Cornelius de Groot van Embden but fought it and was awarded compensation of 500 guilders and 710 hectares of land. Anton Wilhelm Amo born in present-day Ghana circa 1700 was the first African or black person in the world to earn a philosophy degree. He defended his philosophy dissertation and received his doctorate from Wittenberg in 1734. Arthur Wharton was born in Jamestown, Gold Coast today know as Ghana on 28 October 1865 (died 12 December 1930) is widely considered to be the first black professional footballer in the world and was part of the team that reached FA Cup semi-finals in 1886-87. He was also an all-round sportsman - in 1886, he equalled the amateur world record of 10 seconds for the 100-yard sprint in the AAA championship- a keen cyclist and cricketer. Not everything has to be about you, you, you!
