The end of the initiation of the "men-panthères" is an institution common to the wobé, healed and niaboua ethnic groups and lasts four days. It is celebrated by the "blahon" festival, with festive meals, various celebrations and, above all, by dances from all over the region, notably the Blalè, the initiation dance linked to the exit of the brotherhood of "men-panthères". The initiates are young people previously circumcised and trained for two months in a sacred wood until the end of August. On the eve of the initiates' return to the village, the gla masks and kwi (deities) sing all night long.
