    The Gadangme's are one of the twelve tribes of Israel. And these are their names Reuben, Simeon, Judah, Isachar, Zebulun, Benjamin, Dan, Naphtali, Gad, Asher, Ephraim and Manasseh this were the tribes of Israel in ancient days. Gadangme is a combination of two tribe's known to be the Gad and Dan, they were the two tribe's or groups that moved through the Nile river to Ethiopia settling from one place to another before our present location in the greater Accra region of Ghana. People ask why we are black, the ancient Israelites were not white they were Black people but the whites changed everything to deceive Africans.

    Too much of original Ga culture has been corrupted by the culture of the heathens who had lived around them in their emigration, for example Twin festival, chieftaincy, priestesses etc. Gas do not worship idols; they build Altars around whom the Wolumo, the High Priest communicates with God through the Angels exactly as the children of Israel worship the LORD God through the Angel of the LORD God because GaDangbe people are of the tribe of GAD.

      The GaDangme's culture was corrupted by followers of the Ankh Cult (Canaan) whose name (Ankhs) has been mispronounce as Akans over the years.

      @James Frankson Tettey, Ive read a lot of your comments under such videos and I always see the depth of your colonized and christianized mind which uplifts Judaic laws and practices over true Afrikan spirituality, culture and tradition. We were Afrikan first and the uplifters of all that exists in nature before the appearance of the Akpaso-Y3dzi on our shores. What do you mean by idols? What you call the ANGELS through which the High Priest communicates with what you call 'god' , are what are known in all Afrikan Spirituality as 'DZEMAWORDZI' ....They are not idols like those statues on crosses and others mounted on globes that you worship willingly without complaining ...As a Son of Gadangbe you should be ashamed of yourself for denigrating the natural spirituality and traditions of your Great People. What do you mean by using the Religious Colonizers' word of oppression 'Heathen'? Words like 'heathen, heresy, idolatry etc were all created by the Oppressor -race to induce self-hate and to strengthen our rejection of everything that defines who we are and that includes the Twin festival, Chieftaincy, The Priest and Priestess' Order which are very vital to our culture, ethnicity and spirituality. For your information, whatever you see and call idols are mounds containing relics of trials and triumphs to remind Afrikans of where they've been and where they are headed. The Priestesses are the handmaidens of the Creator through whom he communicates by way of his creation, which includes the water bodies, vegetation animals, etc...
      I think you want to stay Afrikan on the outside and practice European religion and worship openly...
      No true Afrikan must support what you wrote because Afrikans cannot worship your so=called Lord-god...Gadangbes were thriving on this earth before the inventors of your so-called lord-god emerged from their icy caves...nonsense.
