Kampakuya-Naa

Dagbani · Dagomba (Dagbon), Northern Region · Royal title

The title of the Dagbon regent. Graphic Online (2026) states that by Dagbon tradition it is conferred on the eldest son of the late Ya-Na, who oversees the funeral until a successor is enskinned; Owusu-Mensah (2022) uses it for the Regent of Dagbon.

The Kampakuya-Naa acts as regent after a Ya-Na dies.
