Tuk-Ham Festival Kaduna State

The present day Tuk-Ham annual festival is a fusion of both “Ku” and “Fain” festivals which were known to be celebrated by the forebears of the Ham (Jaba) people. It features a lot of traditional and cultural displays, traditional dances, “Juju” and many other processions. Tourists interested in this festival should visit Kwoi, which is just about 187 kilometres from Kaduna.
The festival is usually celebrated and performed during Easter holidays. The two-day ceremony is normally preceded by a symposium and Tir-Ham (Miss Jaba) and is rounded up with cultural displays and a Gala night.
