The Savannah zone of Ghana, is made up of three regions, Upper east, Upper west and the Northern region. The three regions usually referred to as the “North” singularly, is the most drought affected areas of Ghana, however, during the rainy seasons, it blossoms in beautiful greenery.

The Savannah zone of Ghana is known for its beautiful heritage, traditions and culture, its great local dishes, drinks, fruits and very friendly hardworking natives. It is also one of Ghana’s highest recording agricultural zones and suppliers of a lot of raw materials/crops both for consumption and export.

Daughter of the land, have taken it upon myself to showcase the Savannah in a simple yet beautiful and interesting limelight, unfolding stories of our ways of living above the widespread negative notion of “poverty, illiteracy and violence”.
