Festivals

There have been lots of achievements because when it’s a celebration, people of ABOSAN celebrate it, people of MERI also celebrate it and so do the people of AGEMO, KORE, TURKU, AGERE, ASA and IGUNU people come out together. Igunu is celebrated for the youths, to bring them together but it will always be concluded that it is the Oba that is celebrating as the Oba favors every religion. But without approval from the Oba, this celebration cannot take place because he has the final say in the community.

GBEDU

In Yoruba land, Gbedu drums are owned by the king. If the king wants to install a chief or have a large feast, the drums are used to welcome is guest to the venue be it in the palace or not, he will also on the day of installing a chief opening Gbedu as a mark of honor for the person and he will dance with the people. When the Oba bestows a title on someone and if the Oba has visitors that he wants to entertain, GBEDU is used to entertain them and most have been with the Obaship institutions from the scratch.
