Dagaaba people
The Dagaaba people (singular Dagao)〔(Constancio Nakuma. An Introduction to the Dagaare Language. on DagaareLinguists' HomePage ), update as of 25 May 2003, retrieved 2009-02-12.〕〔(Dagara, Southern ) in Gordon, Raymond G., Jr. (ed.), 2005. Ethnologue: Languages of the World, Fifteenth edition. Dallas, Tex.: SIL International. Online version: http://www.ethnologue.com/. Retrieved 2009-02-12.〕) are an ethnic group in the West African nations of Ghana and Burkina Faso. They speak the Dagaare language, made up of the related Northern Dagaare language, Southern Dagaare language, a number of sub dialects. They are related to the Birifor people and the Dagaare Diola.〔 The language is collectively known as Dagaare (also spelled Dagare, Dagari, Dagarti, Dagaran or, Dagao) and historically some non-natives have taken this as the name of the people.〔〔Dr. A. B. Bodomo. (Language and Culture, Introduction: The Dagaare language and its speakers ), from The Structure of Dagaare (1994) Posted by author March 9, 2004. Retrieved 2009-02-12.〕 One historian, describing the former usage of "Dagarti" to refer to this community by colonials, writes : "The name 'Dagarti' appears to have been coined by the first Europeans to visit the region, from the vernacular root ''dagaa''. Correctly 'Dagari' is the name of the language, 'Dagaaba' or 'Dagara' that of the people, and 'Dagaw' or 'Dagawie' that of the land."〔Ivor Wilks. Wa and the Wala: Islam and Polity in Northwestern Ghana (African Studies) # Cambridge University Press ( 2002) ISBN 978-0-521-89434-0 p. 15.〕
==Geographic spread==
Although sometimes divided into Northern and Southern Dagaare speakers, their combined population was estimated in 2003 at over one million spread across the Northwest corner of Ghana〔 and Sud-Ouest Region in Southwestern Burkina Faso.〔(Dagara, Northern ) in Gordon, Raymond G., Jr. (ed.), 2005. Ethnologue: Languages of the World, Fifteenth edition. Dallas, Tex.: SIL International. Online version: http://www.ethnologue.com/. Retrieved 2009-02-12.〕 The Southern Dagaare are a people of around 700,000 living in the western part of Upper West Region.〔 The Northern Dagaare speakers, with an estimated population of 388,000 (in 2001) 〔 live primarily in Ioba Province, but also in Poni, Bougouriba, Sissili, and Mouhoun provinces. In Ghana, several waves of internal migration, beginning in at least the late 19th century and spiking in the 1980s, have brought a sizable Dagaaba population to towns in the southern part of the nation, notably Brong Ahafo Region.〔(Gariba B. Abdul-Korah. ‘Where Is Not Home?’: Dagaaba migrants in the Brong Ahafo Region, 1980 to the present ). African Affairs 2007 106(422):71-94.〕 In modern Ghana, the Dagaaba homeland of the Upper West Region includes the Districts and towns of Nandom, Lawra, Jirapa, Kaleo, Nadowli, Daffiama, Wechiau and Hamile. Large communities are also found in the towns of Wa, Bogda, Babile, Tuna, Han and Nyoli.〔A. B. Bodomo.
