the country of the Dagbamba

• Kpamba wuhiya ni Ŋmantambo bɛhigu ŋɔ shee n-nyɛ Dagbɔŋ mini Nanuŋ tintarisi. The elders indicate that where this Ngmantambo belongs is on the borders of Dagbong and Nanung.
• Nyuli dibu chuɣu puhibu nyɛla binshɛli din yuui Dagbɔŋ. Celebrating the yam-eating festival is something that goes back a long way in Dagbong.
• Naya gbinni nyɛla, “Nam ya” dama nam kam din be Dagbaŋ ŋɔ piinila nimaani. The meaning of NaYa (Yendi) is Kingdom town because all kingship in Dagbong started there.
