- A plethora of flawlessly beat faces
- Rooms filled with 70% women & 30% men
- Fully able bodied men walking around with Mkpo (wooden walking sticks)
- Men too young to answer Igwe walking around with Akupe (hand fans)
- Unlimited Red or White Coral Beads / Chieftaincy Caps
- Random “ Igbo Kwenu” greeting sessions

These are just some of the humorous yet memorable things that make us proud to be the children of Igboland. We hope to continue these traditions and are grateful for events like Umu Igbo Unite Convention for making sure our traditions never dies. Why?.. Because “Igbo Amaka.”
