Culture and history

Ghana connects the Akan, Ewe and Ga-Dangme traditions with the legacy of the colonial period and early independence of 1957.

Adinkra symbolism and kente fabric act as identity signs, while highlife/hiplife/afrobeats music and azonto dance set the rhythm of urban life.

The Homowo, Aboakyer and Adae Kese festivals strengthen community ties, whereas football and the Black Stars squad remain a key cultural phenomenon.

Perception of gambling is moderate: lotteries are a familiar part of everyday life, interest in mobile betting is growing, but public emphasis remains on responsibility, protection of minors and transparency of operators.
