I would probably have tried to kidnap the elephant ;-))) Lovely!

Seriously - you keep your traditions very high and the young people seem to enjoy it too. Cool!

😀🤣... trust me that would be the most expensive play .

The name of their local government area is "Mkpat Enin" which means elephant leg.

So, this particular elephant is their origin and it has a lot to do with their history.

That's why if you noticed, it is the most protected cultural display in that arena. Infact without this elephant, this day is not complete and won't hold.

Yes! Nigerians have a lot to do when it comes to tradition and culture..., basically, I think it’s almost the same thing in all the African countries.

Sometimes, the story behind some of this culture and tradition move the young ones to explore it.

In my own judgement, the African drum comes with some great vibes that triggers most especially young people because of it's sweet rhythm and excitement😅

The energy that comes immediately their drumming and music get started is on a different level.
