Our traditions cont.

Intricate rites and ceremonies that were performed in ancient African Royal Courts remain an integral part of day-to-day activities by present day African Kings, Queens and Chiefs. Indeed, despite the loss of political power by traditional African rulers and the growth of tiny hamlets and villages into sprawling cities, most traditional practices that govern royalty in Africa are largely intact.

With the advent of democracy in Africa, politicians have realized the need to be at the forefront in the sustenance of our rich cultural heritage. Consequently, traditional rites have in recent times been increasingly present in activities organized by politicians.
