Ho Yam Festival
In mid-September to September ending, the chiefs and people of Asogli State (Ho) and surrounding areas such as Sokode, Abutia Klefe and Akrofu celebrate their annual yam festival.
This is essentially a harvest festival.
Cooked yam is sprinkled at the various shrines.
This is done before any human being is allowed to cook and taste the real yam.
There is usually a grand durbar of chiefs where the chiefs sit in state to receive homage from their subjects.
The mode of celebration differs slightly from one traditional area to another.
