The main attraction of the day was the Zangbetor dance in the Republic of Benin.
Zangbetor is a traditional voodoo guardian of the night among the Ogun (Egun) in Togo, Benin and Nigeria.
The Zangbetor cult is charged with the maintenance of law and order and ensures safety and security within Ogun communities.
In recent times, the dance is more for entertainment purposes. (A good cultural tourism experience)
