About this activity

Bonwire village has been a famous place for people to visit because that's where the world-known Kente was invented. They give the story of how it came about and the meaning of the kente. There are 3 different types of Kente cloth;

Single Weaving

*Double Weaving

*Tripple Weaving

Note: All these kinds are weaved differently with meaning.

The naming ceremony is very unique for any Diaspora coming back home because is done by the chiefs and Queen-mother of a village inside their Palace. Also, we give you a certificate with your new African name on it.

We give two names, Your soul name, and a family.
