CÉRÉMONIE LWIINDI DES PEUPLES LEYA ET TOKA LEYA

The Leya people of the Sekute and Musokotwane chiefs, as well as the Toka Leya people of Chief Mukuni near Livingstone, celebrate the Lwiindi ceremony every January, praying for the arrival of rains and the end of the drought. A 40 km walk that ends at the foot of the Victoria Falls, in the boiling pot, from where young men must bring water from the Zambezi. Then, these same young men, having proved their courage, return to their village, covered with leaves.
