THE YORUBA ORIGIN OF THE GA - ADANGBE PEOPLE IN GHANA

 THE YORUBA ORIGIN OF THE GA - ADANGBE PEOPLE IN GHANA 

These are pictures of the recent visit of of the Ga Mantse, [Taki Teiko Tsuru II], the traditional King of the Gã ethnic nationality of the Accra region in Ghana during his visit to Ile ife, the ancestral home and source of his people to confirm their Yoruba/Ife origins and strengthen traditional ties.
According to the history of the Ga people, they originated from Yorubaland before migrating further west into the region now known as modern day southern Ghana led by the powerful Ayi-Kushi.  The Yoruba people, also known as 'Alata' in Southern Ghana have another traditional stool dating from the 1600s in the Greater Accra Region as the 'Alata Mantse' of Osu. The people of Osu Alata in Southern Ghana today are Yoruba descendants.
Highlights of the re-union event...
- The Ga Adangbe people emigrated out of Yorubaland.
- They are the people of Ga Mashie (Accra), Osu, Labadi Teshie, Tema, Ada and other towns in the greater Accra region.
- The Ga Mantse (King) visited Ile Ife in 2022 with 23 Ga Emissaries to strenghten their Yoruba ties.
- The Ga Mantse visited places like the Moremi Ajasoro Grove, Obatala temple, the house of Oranmiyan, and the Grand Temple of Ifa in Ile Ife.

“The Àjé

Image
  “The Àjé (Iyami) represents the mystical powers of the woman in her most dangerous form. The dance of the GELEDE is the expression of the guilty conscience of men, stemming from a time when the matriarchic society became patriarchy. The great mystic power of the woman, originally used in a productive way for the working of the soil, etc., can be transformed into a weapon. Everything must therefore be done to calm the woman, to appease her, and to give her compensation for the loss of her political position. If Àjé  was taken to be a wholly evil being and the enemy of society, the obvious recourse would be to hunt her down and kill them whenever possible. The Àjé are therefore not truly witches. They are the grand mothers, the angry mothers, and without their  good will, Life itself would not  be able to continue; without them society would collapse.” Ulli Beier

Yoruba Value System

Image
In Yorubaland, money has never been at the top of Yoruba value system.   In the Yoruba value system money is number 5, what are the first 4? The first is laaka'ye which is the application of ogbon, imo, oye (knowledge, wisdom, understanding). For instance, my grandfather was like the chief judge in our homestead Adelegun. and our town Ago-Iwoye, in his time.  He did not have western education nor was he rich but as he had wisdom he was qualified. When the late Pa Abraham Adesanya and Adekunle Ajasin were made leaders, they were not the richest.  The second is valour. That is why Baloguns are second in command to the leaders in Yorubaland. Baloguns are people that can lead them to war. Yorubas have no respect for cowards.  The third is integrity, someone with integrity is a person of their words.  If you have all the wealth in the world but lack integrity, it means nothing. Integrity is combined with iwa- character which the Yoruba regard as omoluabi. The fourth is having
