Citi TV will be holding a dance durbar on Friday, November 15, 2019, in front of the Dapkema Palace in Tamale.
This is part of the celebration of Damba, the festival celebrated by the people of Dagbon.
Five cultural troupes including Duilbbla, Kpakpagyili, Simpa, Tahama and Tora will be present to perform dances like jara, tora, nagbegu, takai , bamaya and gonje.
The programme will start at 7 pm on Friday.
The Damba festival is celebrated by the chiefs and peoples of Nalerigu, Tamale, and Wa in the Northern Region and Upper West Region of Ghana.
The festival is celebrated in the Dagomba lunar month of Damba, corresponding to the third month of the Islamic calendar, Rabia al-Awwal.
Damba is celebrated to mark the birth and naming of Muhammad, but the actual content of the celebration is a glorification of the chieftaincy, not specific Islamic motifs.
This is part of Citi TV’s resolve to projects culture and tourism in Ghana.
Already, the station has covered the Chale Wote Festival and Odwira Festival.
Citi TV will bring its cherished viewers updates on the festival, especially the durbar (Naa Damba) which is slated for Saturday, November 16, 2019.
