Good evening everyone, please I really need your help. Can anyone please tell me something about the Urobhos, Isokos, Itsekiri and maybe the whole of the Niger Delta region. Why the Men use fans and walking sticks when dancing. I know it's part of the cultural heritage. But what do they signify.. ? I would appreciate clues or answers please.. Thank you. |
