The Gonja people who are a Guan group came to present day Ghana much later than other Guan counterparts who refused to convert to Islam in the 8th AD when Mali was besieged by the Ummayad caliphate dynasty. The original Guan people came to Ghana around 8th Century AD and settled in present day Burkina Faso before dispersing in different groups. This explains why the other Guan groups are not majority muslims and do not hold Islamic values and traditions.
