The town is not only blessed with abundance of agricultural resources, it is very much rich in art and culture and once every year, celebrates her cultural day.

On this day, she showcases her rich culture to the world where curious masquerades come on display.
This very one shows up once in every four years hence the delight of the people's and visitor's view.
It's a giant bird measuring about 12ft tall and only moves in accordance with the rhythms of beating drums.
Am so much delighted to talk about this because I ve only been opportuned to behold it's sight just twice since I was born! You can just imagine .
