It pays homage to the feeder tuber that saved the Ashanti people during their exodus from ancient Ghana to Côte d'Ivoire.
This festival is celebrated at the beginning of each year by the Akan ethnic groups in the country's eastern towns, mainly in December, but also in Abengourou in January. It pays tribute to the nourishing tuber that saved the Ashanti people during their exodus from ancient Ghana to Côte d'Ivoire. On this occasion, the consumption of yams is forbidden, and they are only used for purifying rites. This festival marks the start of a prosperous new year, and reaffirms the enduring link between the living and the dead.
