Selected chiefs and other guests paid special homage to the Oba in grand style during the Emoro practice of age, which promotes love, peace, blessings and avert calamities and social vices in Edo State and Nigeria.

The festival was resuscitated by Oba Ewuare II from going extinct, after he performed the rite that granted approval for consumption of new yam produce by Benin people in line with customs and tradition.

Oba Ewuare II – the source and unity of Benin people, had hosted Edo sons and daughters to a feast in his Palace where he prayed for food sufficiency and revealed that a fast would precede next year’s new yam festival.
