	Ghana - SOCIETY
		The typical political unit was the small state under the headship of an elder from one of the seven or eight clans that composed Akan society.
		Rulers of the centralized MoleDagbane societies were believed to be related to those of the Mossi kingdoms of Burkina and the smaller Nanumba kingdoms of Ghana.
		Whereas some parents in the northern regions of the country resisted enrollment of their children, many in the south encouraged formal instruction because it was regarded as a virtual guarantee of acquiring white-collar jobs and wage-earning positions.

	Aspects of modern state penetration in Africa (1986), by Wim van Binsbergen, Filip Reijntjens & Gerti Hesseling
		So-called traditional rulers or chiefs, and the encapsulated neo-traditional forms of political organisation they are heading, often form the condensation cores of such sub-national identities, to such an extent that the position of these rulers in post-independent Africa increasingly constitutes a reviving topic of empirical study today.
		Even as a form of state penetration the defective functioning of the governmental medical services in that country is claimed to be counter-productive: instead of rallying around a central state that dispenses health and medicine, the local population is said to turn away from the state, not only for medical matters but in general.
		Peasants are depicted as no longer looking to the state for solutions to their economic predicament, and the services that the state has set up, seemingly in order to alleviate this predicament, turn out to primarily or exclusively serve state penetration, at the expense of local initiative, control and economic growth.

		Furthermore, the socio-cultural foreignness of the normative and legal order of the modern state, which is, despite adaptations by the postcolonial state, a legacy from colonial times, adds to the popular alienation from the modern state and the continued attachment to ‘traditional’ institutions.
		Representatives in institutions of the state administration are recruited from the upper levels of the aristocracy of the four majority tribes.
		In African folk law, where immutability of the contract between ruler and ruled has long been supposed, because the discourse of the sanctity of ‘traditional rule’ suggested eternal validity, the rightful murder of a tyrant chief, whose tyranny breaches the basic contract between ruler and ruled, is just the most spectacular example of repudiation.

	Ghana - GOVERNMENT
		The president is head of state, head of government, and commander in chief of the armed forces of Ghana.
		At the state opening of parliament on April 29, 1993, President Rawlings gave an address in which he emphasized that the contributions of all citizens were necessary in order to achieve the national goals of economic development and social justice.
		This was true despite the flare-up of interethnic violence and killing in the northern region between the Konkomba and the Nanumba in early 1994, leading to the declaration of a brief state of emergency in the region.

		Furthermore, the impact of macro-economic developments on fragile states is used to illustrate complex dynamics of inter-group competition in situation of unequal distribution of goods and services, in turn caused by preferential treatment of specific groups by state elite to the detriment of others.
		Hence, the macro economic financial stability of a state is crucial for regime survival, and by consequence the impact of external lending agencies is quite substantial.
		The under developed states of Sub Saharan Africa are unable to face the enormous costs of post-war peace building in general, especially regarding the rehabilitation of roads, buildings and other physical infrastructure as well as re-establishing government services and the state bureaucracy.

		The history of Nanumba, though very different from the Gonja and other northern ethnic groups, is closely associated with their neighboring Dagomba with whom they share the same historical traditions.
		The influence of Islam in the Northern Ghana is on the increase.
		Though the whole Northern Region is far from being under Muslim influence, the current islamization process in the country may become in the long run a hindrance to the progress of the cultural and religious pluralism.

		The roots of the conflicts in northern Ghana are complex and interwoven.

	MOST Ethno-Net publication: Africa at Crossroads
		Hence, in the case of the Northern Region, the act simply glossed over the historical unease between the Konkombas and Dagombas in particular, and the other ethnic groups that were subjugated to the rule of the prominent ones during the colonial rule.
		Hence, the Administration of Lands Act 1962 Act 123, the State Land Act, 1962 Act 125; The Public Conveying Act, 1965; and the Conveyance Decree, 1973 NRCD 145 all upheld the basic tenets of the 1927 Ordinance with respect to the ownership and/or management of lands in the three northern regions (30).
		In the particular case of the Northern Region of Ghana, the Konkombas, for instance attributed their loss of land at the hands of the I. R Alhassan Committee to the fact that the membership of the Committee was stacked with ethnic groups hostile to their cause.

		Even though these groups today constitute three apparently distinct ethnic groups, their people still identify with each other and the bond is strongest among the Dagbamba and Nanumba.
		The most cosmopolitan city of Dagbon is Tamale, which also serves as the Northern Regional capital.

	Issues & Views: Resolving Africa's Crises
		If the head of state is ousted or killed, a power vacuum emerges and factional leaders battle ferociously to fill the void, as in Somalia and Liberia.
		A typical example was the February 1994 deadly ethnic conflict in northern Ghana between the Konkombam, the Nanumba, the Dagomba, and the Gonja, which claimed over 2,000 lives.
		This insidious form of racism suggests that white rulers in Africa must be held accountable to a higher moral standard than fl leaders face.

		Ethnic rivalries of the precolonial era, variance in the impact of colonialism upon different regions of the country, and the uneven distribution of social and economic amenities in post independence Ghana have all contributed to present-day ethnic tensions.
		In areas where there were no central native rulers, before its annexation and in areas where subjects constantly quarreled to regain their independence, the king appointed a Governor.
		The British Government stated it would agree to a firm date for independence if a reasonable majority for such a step were obtained in the Gold Coast Legislative Assembly after a general election.
