396:, Osei Kwadwo sent a force under Kwaaten Pete to reoccupy and arrest the Ya-na Abdallah Gariba around 1772. This comes from the source Ta'rikh Daghabawi, where the author notes the arrest of the Ya Na and he writes that "his sons ransomed him for a thousand slaves. This became tribute between Dagomba and Asante." Dispute prevails as to whether Dagbon was conquered through or war or diplomatic means. Scholar Ward writes about Osei Kwadwo's conquest of Dagbon as he coerced the Ya Na to pay tribute of a thousand slaves, cows, sheep and fowls.

He argues that Ashanti and Dagbon's relations were "a state of politico-economic symbiosis" as opposed to conquest or tributary. Lliasu does admit that Dagbon paid 200 slaves to the Ashanti Empire between 1744 and 1874. 436:

By the late 1750s, the alliance disintegrated following the withdrawal of the Fante as well as the decline in relations with fellow member Denkyira. In June 1765 Osei Kwadwo waged war on the alliance. The armies of Wassa and Twifo escaped to Fante territory but the Akyem were defeated. As a result, 355:
