FÊTE DU DIPRI
Go there and contact
The feast of Dipri, or Kpon, commemorates the sacrifice made by an ancestor to save the Abidji people from famine, also known as the "feast of blood". For blood flows from the wounds inflicted by men in trance. This celebration is characterized by ritual animal sacrifices. The initiates, after a purifying bath, "prick" themselves with a knife, some of which can receive up to more than forty lacerations in the lower abdomen. The beginning of the festival is announced by the Cocobiakri talking tam-tam. Another festival of dipri takes place in May in Sikensi.
