Celebration
It is celebrated to facilitate the recovery of the Sakumo Lagoon for high yield during harvest. There is a 5-month temporary ban on trapping of crabs and fishing from the lagoon before the festival.[5]
Before the public are allowed access to the lagoon, the priest of the Sakumo lagoon performs some rituals on the banks.[6]
During the grand-durbar, there is merry-making and hugs from the chiefs and the inhabitants.[7][8]
