THE TINDANANCY AND NORTHERN TERRITORIES' POLITICS (MODERN DAY NORTHERN REGION OF GHANA).
Many people, including Europeans, acknowledged that the Tindanas were already having their custodian roles as caretakers of the lands on behalf of land gods. Naturally, a Tindana is an earth chief priest who may be a leader of a clan that is the first indigenous occupant of that land and purifies the land by pouring libations, communicating, performing sacrifices, or performing any other ritual to the earth gods. Tindanas are very powerful people with regard to land use and land ownership systems. In Northern Territory politics, Tindanas are pure traditional African believers. Until the arrival of British indirect rulers, these were powerful people equal to governors. A Tindana was never second to anyone except the land gods. That was why they were called Earth Chief Priests. They were modern-day ceremonial leaders and sometimes led their people in defense of the land, properties, and people in the advent of war. A Tindana was more than a mere chief who came to settle on the land for businesses or any expedition. Whoever comes to the Northern Territories has to revere them before doing business with them. The Europeans had already planned to weaken the Tindanas and do away with their nemesis. This was evidenced by the Berlin Conference, chaired by Otto von Bismarck. So when the Germans came to the Northern Territories and tried aggression, the Tindanas fought them. They later have to lower themselves in order to be able to do business with them. Remember that indigenous people already interacted with Arabs, Moroccans, and Europeans during slavery before the Germans who came for control and colonization after the Berlin Conference. During the First World War, most of the Tindanas led their people to help the Germans fight the other Europeans. The Germans lost the war. The British blame the Tindanas and indigenous people for helping the Germans. In their quest to punish the Tindanas, they were represented by indirect rulers in Nigeria, Ghana, the Northern Territories, and other parts of the world. They form a political system in the Northern Territories and intentionally neglect the Tindanas by using chiefs to do their business. Tindanas who opted out went to war with the British colonizers. In areas like Chaal (modern-day Yendi), which was the traditional capital of the Northern Territory's Tindanas and indigenous people, fighting erupted. The British with powerful machine guns and AK-47s overcome the situation. Some Tindanas take covers, and the British rely on their indirect rulers(Chiefs) to form a political system that created Mamprugu Province, Dagomba Province, and Gonja Province.The British supported the indirect rulers with structural administration, persuasion to merge allies, incentives to some local people, and military support in order to peacefully control the Northern Territories. Interestingly, these are Muslim religious believers who have no relationship with traditional land ritual systems and people. They need the support of the Tindanas in some of the sacred areas like Bawku, Chaal (Yendi), and other areas to communicate with the Land Gods. These chaotic systems of confusion was brought by the British in their quest for the British Empire. Any argument that says Northern Territories Tindanas and indigenous people were not formed, have no political system to control their lands, and did not have any governance structural system practicing before the arrival of the British indirect rulers are false, fallacious, mischievous, nebulous, and plunderous. Such commentaries are fabrications by bigots who helped Europeans plundered the Northern Territories.
Part 2 is what happened during independence and post independent. Is just mind blowing. Coming soon...

Ghanaweb, why not point out the word that I've used that isn't allowed? I believe your Ghanaweb AI detector is confusingly censoring some responses that do not attack any person. It will help if your censoring knife points out the so-called words that are not 'allowed' in the comment.

Nice write up, but it seems our history lessons taught us that, the British first set foot in northern Ghana in 1896, and not any date earlier than that. Also, the narrative that descendants of Naa Gbewaa in Pusiga is not accurate. They rather migrated from Pusiga to Gambaga together as w one people, because the place was lowlying and liable to flood, and they migrated to the Gambaga area, which is upland. Some of them ( Nabdam in particular) remained and referred to them as Dagban durisi ( that is, upland Dagbamba). Equally, some of them migrated in search of plain lands for farming purposes, but on migration, they could not continue westwards due to rivers and water bodies which makes the place unsuitable, forcing the majority of the migrants to head southwards and settled the Diyali area, whiles the remaining few crossed to occupy the place now referred to as the magduri district. So they didn't migrate from Gambaga area due to chieftaincy succession disputes, but in search of vast arable lands and areas suitable for settlements.

I was in Tamale from September, 1968 to September, 1969. I don't speak a lot of Ghanaian languages that I came across apart from Gha and Twi.
However, I am an admirer of the human means of communication.
Last year I found myself at Yeji, attended the funeral of my nephew's mother in-law.
After greeting in Twi some relatives of the bereaved came later and I joined them in the Dagbani greetings.
It was as if I was among my relatives back home in Anlo.
Some people describe or relate to families that have their grand or great grandparents from the Northern part of Ghana.
But I am one who take pride in being a family of two or three tribes, because it enriches your history.
My great grandfather was a native of Basra, Iraq and my great grandmother a native of Aguyiboe in Togo.
My great great grandfather was Anya, the one whose name was given to Anyako, also one of my great great grand father's was Kofitse Zoranu, thus my granduncle was Dzelu.
Most of all I am proud to be the one whose heroism the Anlos took as a slogan. Anlo kotsiko nakereda be ye no dzonu benu.
But I keep the name of my clan to myself.
