ỌFỌ Na OGU

Ọfọ is made from a sacred ofo tree and it is a critical ritual symbol among the Igbo. It is not messed with.

Ogu is formed with a young palm leaf to represent conscience and equity. Both Ofo and ogu go hand in hand for equity and justice. ImageImage
One who has ọfọ also must have ogu to stand on justice and equity.

Ọfọ has certainly received in-depth study among the Igbo in the context of traditional religion, blessing and prayers, petitioning, settling disputes and healing illnesses.
One with Ọfọ is respected and the one lives a good life to show what one holds for the community. Ọfọ is raised in prayers and petitions. It is also raised in blessing people, settling disputes and sealing up agreements.
