Igbo Initiation into Manhood🎋
We attended Aju Festival (Iwa Akwa) in Ugbo (Agwu LGA), Enugu and oh what a time we had 😊
In Igboland, Iwa Akwa, also known as ‘cloth wearing’, is an age-long tradition that symbolises an initiation into manhood. It is a ceremony that entails the passage of a young boy transforming into a full fledged man.
When a young boy reaches a certain age around 21-26 years, and the family deems it time for him to partake in Iwa akwa, the elders make prior investigations to make sure he is eligible. This eligibility requirements basically include being of the right age and family background. The participant’s mother has to have been married properly to the community and be identified by the women of the community, and the father has to have properly passed through the initiation stage in his days.
Successful participation is a proof that the man can now take up civil responsibilities within his community and family circles.
