About the Ofala  rooted in deep spirituality, the Ofala is an occasion for the monarch to fulfill certain obligations.

It is primarily a celebration by the monarch and his subjects of the monarch’s annual emergence from seclusion, during which period the monarch has successfully
negotiated the fortunes of the kingdom.

The Ofala is also a reenactment of the joy which the monarch shared with his subjects, at the discovery that yam is non-toxic, and a valuable
source of food.
