🇬🇭 Ghanaians are the original Israelites because our culture is based on the Holy bible and also includes, mourning for the dead in funerals according to (Ecclesiate7:1-4 ) A good name is better than precious ointment, And the day of death than the day of one's birth; Better to go to the house of mourning Than to go to the house of feasting, For that is the end of all men; And the living will take it to heart.

As a Ghanaian child growing up in 1974 I started class 1 in the primary school, you will recite the Ghanaian Pledge, every morning at 8.00 at Assembly or Parade. You will place your right hand across your chest then make this pledge to our country GHANA 🇬🇭🇬🇭🇬🇭 I promise on my honour to be faithful and loyal to Ghana my motherland. I pledge myself to the service of Ghana with all my strength and with all my heart. I promise to hold in high esteem. Our heritage, won for us through the blood and toil of our fathers; and I pledge myself in all things to uphold and defend the good name of Ghana. So help me God. All the way through out your lifetime. ❤ we have been trained physically and mentally to face everyday life's challenges❤❤❤ This is why some of us are so committed to our beloved country GHANA❤❤❤❤ I am living in Canada🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦for 29years now but I always feel homesick due to the culture and the respect we have for humanity❤❤❤✌✌✌

My young lady, you're spot on. I'm a Ghanaian in the Diaspora, and I wholely agree with you. It nay not be perfect in the eyes if others but the Saturday funerals bring us together. In terms of patriotism, Ghana 🇬🇭 is all we have, so inspite of the shortcomings of our leaders, we will never give up on our motherland ❤

In Ghana most people go to work from Monday to Friday and take off on Saturdays and Sundays . So if you do a funeral rites on Saturday , it is likely that more friends and extended family will come to help you out . I think this is the main reason people do funeral rites on Saturdays and thanks giving service is done on Sundays ie the day afther the funeral rites . You are getting deeper into tradions and customs performed in Ghana. This will help you to get closer to Ghanaians and you can have easy break through . I grew up with some Nigerian school mates and the only thing you can identify them is by their name . They speak twi like Asanteni and they are all blessed in Ghana and abroad . Good job to you . Try as much as you can to speak twi and you will see a great difference in your life . The more you speak twi the more people trust you in Ghana .

OK... funerals in Ghana is quite an enigma... when someone dies, the period from the death news to the day before the funeral is the time people who are secondary relation mourn.. it's only the close knit who continue to mourn... the funeral weekend is a time for fun to help the affected person not to think about the lost of the loved one... the party style is a way of consolation.. At Ghana funeral only 2% will cry on that day of the funeral... Also the funeral is a way of celebrating the life of the dead person.. we say life is a journey so when people die they are continuing their journey to a better place.

Funerals itself in our culture it is belief that is a journey to another part of the world so in this case we celebrate your journey to join our ancestors. Is only the Friday night till Saturday we mourn because people will feel your absence to their love ones. In Ghana we are family incline and practice community system, so you living in a community there is probability you have benefit from somebody who is not part of your family but by virtue knowing each other in your environment or being a friend to his or her daughter or son. In this regard funeral in such environment you will be expected to pay your last respect by showing your presence is enough just to console with the family. In Ghana family is not by blood relation alone its extend beyond that. That is why in funeral after cemetery people contribute money to support the bereaved person that is what we call "nsawa bo "" to support cost incurred during the funneral preparation. The Sunday become thank giving services,for God making his journey a successful one

There’s a day for mourning and the last day usually the Sunday after church we party, celebrating the life of the deceased. Close family members continue to mourn for 40 days.

It is not the food but remember funneral brings families together. Ghanaian being family incline people love gathering with their love ones,friends,aunties, uncles, from different family background dine together in one understanding and familiarise ourselves to each other. In this people will eat,chat and even make new friends and some even meet their partner in funneral social gathering .

Pertaining to the funeral clothes, every family choose the kind of clothes for their funeral. You can do a video on the various funeral materials and their name meanings, and then you can understand why people sew new clothes for almost every funeral. 😅

It is believed that when someone is born, the heavens lose,but when someone dies ,society loses, and that is why it is a big deal. People even believe that Ghanaians love the dead as opposed to the living, but to see people leave their loved ones and gone forever, is also a mystery, so it is a balanced situation .

Every tribe have their ways of funeral. If what you see in Accra is what you are talking about then do more research. I can only talk about Accra because most of the funerals there are for the tribe that lives IN Accra. The Gas in Accra, in the past all family gather to cry for a new born baby. The reason was, that innocent child has come. Into this earth and doesn't know the consequences he or she is going to face in the future so they cry for that. They celebrate for the passing of their loved ones because at least they believed the person have been ables to achieve what he or she came to do on this earth. no matter the years they have been on this earth. That is why you see more parties in Accra when there is funeral. And this what the GA people do for their funeral rites in Accra.

Befe their patriotism is just on the surface and against those they perceive as foreign…also look at ghana like yurobaland and igboland I have hardly ever seen igbos even born in Lagos getting involved in matters in yurobaland and vice versa .. include northern Nigeria too same scenario… besides young sister if they’re that patriotic they will not allow their leaders to steal them blind … I think your observation is lacking in “courage “ … one day one day God willing when I get to Ghana I will give you some pointers on what to look out for ..in ghana what you see may not be what it is because we’re good at faking it … I’m a pan Africanist I love all of Africa so I’m not afraid to criticize or critique any country on my continent

Your point lack logical clarity. Ghana comprises of over 80 tribes of which Akan is half the population or nearly half. If you are talking about leaders, what do you really mean? If it's political parties, then it not for one tribe. Africa in general have corruption problem and generalizing by tribe is uncut statement that lack evidence. Ghanaians in general are peace-loving patriotic people by nature. Stop tarnishing Ghana's name. For instance, 500,000 homeless people are in the United States, but some ignorant people in Africa think US is Greener Pasture and rossy.
