Consistently, the tribal prejudices you spoke about come from a group of people from a certain demographic who feel superior to others. The Akans, especially the Asantes and Akyems, have consistently been prejudiced against the Gas, the Ewes, and the Northerners. Address them!

Fentuo the man said that because ntafo( b33ma so dodo and they will hurt his Obolo daughter cos Obolo fo( tw3 sua , nothing deep apart from that master ❤️👍 Love your submission tho

You're not correct lol

I don’t really blame some of our grandparents and parents, for many tribal biases was part of their upbringing, especially from the Builders to Generation Y. But it’s on us, the new generation, to break that cycle. My own mom once insisted I should only marry an Akan woman, preferably Akuapim. That changed when she met the beautiful Ga lady who’s now my wife. Even my kid brother brought home an Ewe woman, and to my surprise, she was warmly welcomed. The lesson here is that tribal stereotypes are learned, and they can be unlearned. It’s up to us to lead that change.

I keep saying this. With the level of ethnocentrism Ghanaians exhibit in society, no one can tell me the Ghanaian wouldn’t have been racist if geographical locations were changed. Y3 p3 nyiyimu paaaaa.

Reserve your energy. Racism and favoritism is everywhere In America 🇺🇸 In Asia Even in the northern part of Ghana, the Dagombas see themselves to be better than the other tribe. We need to embrace our differences that is the most importance thing Love is the greatest of all

Who even wants the oversized pig.

Fentuo, the things pain you oo. Might be just a joke he might have said to his daughter.

Spot on Fent

This is a general problem, my first love was tanii girl whom I even have a child with but her father didn’t agree with our relationship because I’m an Ashanti man. It’s a matter of choice, but primitive though.

When the Issue of Ga folks making appeal for them to be respected and recognized as custodians of the capital you were screaming foul at their request now that it's your turn look at how you are crying, you no see anything yet.

My wife family tried that with me when I was going for her list. I told them I won't beg them to go against their wish, so I will leave if they change their mind, they should give the list to her to send me. There and there nooor the entered the room and gave to me.🤣

Fentuo abeg relax, they say this to our (Ewe Men) faces all the time but we use the “ahobreasie” tactics to chop them all the time 😂😂 It’s a perception, and if handled well, it will fade away with time 🙏🏽

So how about a Muslim Lady who can’t take a Christian guy for a serious relationship and not even marriage cuz her family is against it ⁉️ sometimes there’s not much we can do over situations like this 🫱🏾🫲🏿

💯 agree with you. It’s so true and shameful that such tribal bigotry and prejudices is still being propagated in 2025. Very worrying and sad. As young people we need to talk against it and do away with it. We’ll be better for it.

Kelvin Taylor, your friend, frequently makes tribal insults, and you don't seem to say anything about it. LoL

He’s just making his preference just as people have spec so if he’s stating what he wants for his daughter I don’t see anything wrong with it and besides that not the only thing he said, I’m a taani and not offended. It’s just what he wants for his daughter.

The thing dey worry baba fentuo paaan.🤣🤣 I suffered such a fate. After dating this lady for 2 years.Her family knows me so well.Asked for her hand in marriage. Date for wedding was set then piuwww!!The father says" I'm from Bawku so declined to it. A VERY PAINFUL EXPERIENCE 💔

The hasty generalization when it comes people’s experiences when it come to tribes it crazy!

@zacchaeus95 Bro even in the northern part of Ghana there are divisions some tribes don’t allow their people to marry from other tribes in the north

Akans are so discriminatory. Gutter behavior 🤧🤧 just look at this

💯👏 But Chad ein accent that?🤣 or u no go Chad?

But why are you speaking like an Indian speaking English

How does his choice offend the sensibility of another group of people...he just mentioned what he doesn't like without adding any further explanations...@Fentuo_ you are rather coming from a prejudice point of view ...you've diverted the whole discourse bro

I don't mind marrying anyone as fall as the person is beautiful and meets certain requirements. We are in a society where one can not be crowned a chief or queen if he/she is from a mixed tribe. So I will take it from that point. Maybe the father doesn't want his grandchildren to miss such an opportunity. We are one people but we aren't one people, if we indeed are, akwaaba will not be a problem in an obake land

“In my opinion, though, Akwaaba is no longer just a language issue; it's become a symbol of cultural identity for all Ghanaians.” _ Fentuo Could we by extension say that “Tanii” has become a cultural identity for all people of Northern extraction?

Good points but I don’t think the man was being tribalistic. We all have our preferences and what we wish our children get into. I said to myself that I won’t marry a Kwahu even though I am one, it doesn’t mean I don’t like my own people but there’s is something about them I hate

Ghanaians are illiterate when it comes to this subject

First time I side with a Chelsea fan ❤️

You are right to point out the differences in ethnic groups and the importance of avoiding tribal prejudices, we can't also dictate to the man how he assesses a partner for his daughter. We may think it's unfair or inaccurate but that's his opinion shared on a private platform.

With everything happening in Bawku, you really expect my son to marry from there? Who would even dare follow him to ask for the lady’s hand in marriage? 😂😂😂

If you’ve never stayed in the north, you will never get this message, the Northerners themselves don’t even wonna be mistaken for different among themselves. There’s a lot of segregation going on up there.

The fact that the man doesn't want his daughter to marry tani doesn't mean he dislikes them, there is a reason even in the Bible some tribe could not marry from other tribes, don't be emotional about it, the father has give her room the chose but she should take notice if it

I lost an Ewe girl with big soft botos because of this tribal bigotry. I still don’t understand why it’s even a problem in this day and age 🤦♂️

I think the "Tani" was in reference to Islam not tribal. Because he referred to the fact that he needs a church going person (Christian)

Apt 👏🏽
