Ohafia War Dance
The Ohafia War Dance (Igbo: ''iri agha'') is a popular war dance performed in several parts of Eastern Nigeria. The dance which has its roots from Ohafia is performed by a group of muscular men in commemoration of their strength in fighting and winning wars in the past.
==Origin==
According to oral history, the ancestors of Ohafia were renowned to be mighty men of war who were always on the lookout for wars to take part in.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=History of Ohafia People and Culture )〕 The Ohafia warrior tradition which remains one of the fundamental identity of the people of Ohafia is hinged in the performance of ''iri agha'' - the practice of beheading a fallen enemy. A human skull is a proof of a man's courage and strength. Only those who brought home a human head could join the Ogbu-Isi society and wear an eagle's plume which is a symbol of courage.
