Yoruba Gbe

The Yoruba communities of Togo, concentrated in the southeast around the border with Benin, maintain their own language, their own Orisa traditions, and their own festivals. The Yoruba of Togo have been here for centuries, trading, farming, and practicing their faith alongside their Ewe, Fon, and Mina neighbors. Today celebrates that coexistence and the cultural richness it produces. The Orisa traditions, Ifa divination, and Yoruba drumming that thrive in Togo are living proof that borders do not contain culture.
