If a new baby is birthed into the world, they will first bath the child and clean the baby up , then before any other thing can be done again, there will have to be a traditional rite which they do call (ORO) in which the chief priest will take the child and sink in a stream or water, if the >child float up itself without anything happening to the child they will start the celebration immediately,this is not the nearest ceremony but just the minute celebration that the child is a real child and not a bastard.

This could be very risky and it's not a good idea have you witnessed such a thing before?i have never heard about that tho I no they perform oro but not for a new born baby.But atleast have been able to learn an important thing that even me that is from the tribe hasn't come across before,I really do appreciate you for also dropping a good point about our tribe,let's keep shining mayorkeys@mayorkeys.
