A popular Dagbani proverb comes to mind here to express the Dagbon sense of community. It

Communalism in Dagbon is a system that is both supersensible and material in its Terms of reference. Both are found in a society that is believed by the Dagombas to be originally "godmade" because it transcends the people who live in it now, and it is "Man-made" because it cannot be culturally understood independent of those who live in it now.cont.read
