Traditional dances in Ghana come in various forms, with each dance having its own symbolic meaning depending on the occasion.

Ghana’s varied and unique ethnic groups open up a world of amazing dance techniques that are mostly seen during events that mark true Ghanaian culture.

One of such dances was showcased by outspoken lawyer and political observer Gabby Otchere-Darko when he attended a funeral recently.
