Ghana

Unreached people groups

An overview of the country's people groups, focusing on those who still have little or no access to the gospel in their own language and culture.

Overview

Ghana has dozens of people groups. The south is majority Christian and well reached, but the north concentrates peoples under Islam and ethnic religions, such as the Hausa, Fulani, Dagomba and Gonja, many of them little or not reached. Dozens of languages still lack the complete Bible, and it is among these peoples of the north that the country's greatest missionary need lies.
