Nigeria is a multi-tribal country with more than 300 large and small tribes. There are many customs and festivals. The larger festivals are: 1. Osun Festival (Osun) Osun is the name of a river in Nigeria. It originates in the mountains of the north and flows through the Yoruba area, and then enters the sea in eastern Lagos. It is said that Osun and King Osogbo made an agreement to feed fish to the river every year. The water of the Osun River can make infertile women pregnant. Osun Festival starts on a Thursday in August every year and lasts for eight days. On the first day, King Ataoga sacrifices various gods and announces the beginning of the new year, and people start to eat new cassava. On this day, all the poor people can enter the palace to ask the king for a gift. In the evening, the priest of Ife lights a huge oil lamp, and Atauga and the chiefs go to the Oso River to feed the holy fish. After he returns to the palace, he throws kola fruits and coins at the people, and people scramble to grab them, because it is said to bring good luck. 2. Leboku is popular in areas where cassava is grown, such as the states of River Chris and Akwa Ibom. After the planting season, the priests of Ugay Fort determine the date of Leboku. On the first day, the men deliver the collected coconut wine and cassava to the house of the supreme chief, and then light torches throughout the city to announce the start of the festival. The next day the Ekaoui dance; the third day the betrothed lovers give each other gifts; in order to determine the order of the girls in the dance, the man will decide the ranking by wrestling on the fourth day; the fifth day the Ekailai dance, the lovers exchange gifts; the sixth day, magic and swearing competitions, people can scold passers-by or abuse each other; the last day, the elderly women with gourds sprinkle potions in the city to announce the end of the festival. 3. The Great Ofala (The Great Ofala) Onicha on the lower Niger River is the meeting point of Benin and Igbo cultures. Every September, the Supreme Chief Obi holds the Ofala Festival here. Early in the morning, people are woken up by the sound of drums, and the chiefs arrive in formation and dance to the music. At noon, people flocked to Obi’s palace to see him. Obi appeared three times, with a sword in his right hand and an amulet made of a ponytail in his left. It was said that if the amulet touched anyone, they would get leprosy. The women sang songs in praise of Obi. After the festival of Ophala, the new cassava festival followed. 4. Sharo The Fulani people still maintain a culturally isolated mystery. Their festival of saro is a festival to exercise the willpower of young people. At the beginning of the festival, they are divided by age, posing for beatings, chanting spells in their mouths, and then being whipped by their peers. Bloodstains appear on the body. If he falters a little, he is considered a “coward”. Married men can also participate, and those who are shaken may lose their wives. 5. Uhola is a festival for the Fadaka and Dokawa people to pray for good weather. If there is a year when a natural or man-made disaster strikes a village or a family, Uhola is celebrated. Before the festival, each family slaughters an animal and distributes food and meat to guests and passers-by. On the day of the festival, young men and women sing and dance together, and then there is a wrestling match. After the festival, the fiancé goes to his fiancée’s house to do farm work, and he can’t marry his wife until seven years later. 6. Igue. Igue is a festival for the Yoruba people to remove the old and welcome the new, and pray for peace and prosperity. The festival is divided into ten parts. The most exciting scene is the scene of pretending to fight on the third day. This is to commemorate the war between Oba, the first king of Benin, and a group of elders led by Omenga. On the last morning, young men and women held torches to drive away the evil gods to welcome the New Year. They also went to the effect area to pick Ewell leaves and give gifts to relatives and friends to show good luck in the New Year. 7. Idu (Idu) Idu is a festival to worship the creator and celebrate the harvest of bananas. It is held every 7 years. On the first day, in addition to dancing, there are fake wars and fake fishing. Men dressed in women’s clothes scatter fish and meat into the crowd. People run around and laugh. On the second day, families parade as units, throwing biscuits at people. A strong man tops a large iron pan full of rice, and people scramble to grab and grab the rice. On the fourth day of the festival, the host of the ceremony cuts down the banana tree with a large knife in his hand. If the banana tree falls in the wrong direction, it means that the gods refuse the sacrifice. The host appears nervous and serious. As soon as the banana tree falls, people rush to grab a branch and a half leaves, because it means good luck for the next seven years. 8.
