TRADITION, CULTURE, MARRIAGE IN THE HISTORY OF OBOLLO

‘ONWA ASA’ (THE SEVENTH MONTH) FESTIVAL IN OBOLLO

The cultural zone of Nsukka, Obollo in particular celebrates Onwa Asa festival every year between the month of June and July. The remarkable thing is  that masquerade use to be everywhere in town. This is the time of traditional men use to re-engages different gods according to their faiths and belief.  This practice has been there before the coming of the Europeans that brought Christianity. Though being overtaken by the Christian faiths.

The joy of the festival has been the watch of different masquerades like Okpokwu, Akatakpa, Ukwuidenyi, Ogerenyi Akatakpa, Oke-ikpe, Onyeyiko maru and the rest of others.

The bad aspect of the masquerade not the festival is the fetish aspect of its vendetta.

I promise to furnish you with this year’s folding events. Happy viewing.

OBOLLO PEOPLE, HAPPY CHRISTMAS!

HAPPY CHRISTMAS TO ALL OF YOU.

ELECTION OF NEW EXCO FOR OBOLLO YOUTHS ASSEMBLY: THINGS WE NEED TO KNOW

The Obollo Youths Assembly of Nigeria is expected to elect her new leaders come November 2015 for the next three years.

Mr. Julius Ugwu is the current President of the Group. Mr ugwu is from Obollo-Afor zone and going by the constitution of the Group is expected to roll out plans in time to effect smooth transition.

The new President will emerge from Obollo-Eke zone all things being equal.

The search for the next replacement of Mr. President is on and has been a matter of discuss among the members and other interest groups. Likely who?

The group needs a focused person who can take the association to the next level. A person who can devote time to treat issues with merit it deserves.  An innovative and dynamic leader to be. Unbiased minded trustworthy and sincere personality.

As people are watching to see the outcome of this important election, the elites of Obollo people are not left behind as it helps to shape some cultural decision making in Obollo land.

In the past, the campaign for OYAN Executive council election has no difference with the furors and sagas of local government election. Will it be the same thing this time around? Bar staging as usual? I presume the ideology has to change if a good leader is expected.

I will keep you posted on the development while you pray for a reliable President of OYAN to emerge.
