LocalFARMERS:


What does this mean?

I actually meant to type "Agere" and that means the equivalent of what the Igbos call Izaga in Yoruba language. The difference is that Ageres are not regarded as masquerades in Yoruba land and they don't cover their face.

Igunun is a masquerade of the Nupe people. The Nupes of Niger,Kwara and parts of Kogi states.
