In Ghana , the diverse ethnic groups execute a variety of dances. Included in this group are Adowa, Kete, Bamaya, Bima , Boborbor , Kpalongo , Agbadza , Patsa , Gome , Apatampa and others of a like nature. In the Southern region of Ghana , the Akan people who are Twi speakers , perform the ADOWA dance.
Oral history has it that , a great Queen of the Ashantis ( ABREWA TUTUWAA ) was sick and the only way to get her healed was through getting a life ANTELOPE from the wild to pacify the gods and make her well again as revealed by the chief priest . This brought about the ADOWA DANCE.
Let's flag high the colours of Ghana.
Till then , "ma kra mu " saying goodbye
