So basically, the acclaimed Oro festival is just a couple of men, dressed in all white, carrying a wooden box and running round a deserted street as is being portrayed in these pictures? If not, I 'll appreciate if someone with indepth knowledge of the rites would be kind enough to school us. I'm curious. What is the significance of the rites and why are the indigenes barred from coming out to relish the thrills of such a strong culture? And, what's that stuff that guy up there is supposed to be carrying? Could it be the nake|d remains of the late royal father??

the stunt by the awo guys is not connected to the oro (ritual) going on in town,

Awolowo Hall boys(Awo boys) are just doing what they are best known for, 'aro'.

There is never a dull moment in Awo hall. This hall has raw talents. Awo boys can mimick anybody. It was always laughter galore whenever they stormed Afrika Amphitheatre. I remember those days when Patrick Obahiagbon was being mimicked by Don Billion.

oh! I see, that's quite an excellent display by the boys, looks almost very real to outsiders like us. Can you educate me on the main thing going on in town? Would 've been fun to travel to Ogun state and 've a first hand experience of the rites just for the sheer thrills of it and for the sake of knowledge, but there's a curfew and even if there wasn't, I don't think I'd 've still been chanced to attend. But I'm very curious as a fan of African cultures, though a Christian. Will appreciate it if you can shade more light on the subject

Faj was too quiet for my liking. I prefer scorting in Awo to having a bed space in Faj. During aluta, Faj is a wrong place to get mobilization. Awo and Angola contribute more.

Wrong bro, if you are around when Adeniyi Adenekan Akanni (Dr 3As) was the SUG President, you will understand why Faj was the centrepoint of activities then....3As is a good friend so was Bode (Fresh Prince) his Publicity Secretary, the Scapites (DSMites) own Awo hall.....

Awo boys are crazy walahi. Won yato si eniyan

Na this kind thing make me run from the room my cousin got for me in awo block 3 when I entered OAU. I never believed I could survive a week among those guys but before long, I realised what I was missing and spent more time there than at the space I bought in PG hall.

Only an Awo guy can carry 'oro' and won't fear any repercussions.
