FESTIVAL DE PÊCHE D’ARGUNGU

A 4-day festival organized in the city of Argungu since 1934 to mark the end of the conflict between the Caliphate of Sokoto and the Kingdom of Kebbi, this fishing competition brings people from all over the region, armed with their nets, to try to pick the biggest fish and win a prize of several thousand dollars! It gives rise to superb images of these thousands of fishermen who have attacked the river.
