New yam festival is now even celebrated in the African Diaspora by the descendants of those who experienced the Maafa.

Wow, this is good you know. Another reason being that when people go to farm then, the lazy ones will not participate. Thus, they found this ceremony as a reward for hard work and a way of encouraging lazy people to farm. In my dialect we say ‘mgbawara onye aka oku’; meaning, I did not stop anybody from working hard.
