DocumentaryHistoryFamily
The name Ajoko-mo-gbe-odo (the one who sits without need for stool) is said to have been given in the ancient time when all Egungun in Ogbomoso openly perform for the king, Soun of Ogbomoso. After their performance, other Egungun would sit on stool but this precise Egungun choose to be different by sitting without a stool. Since then, the onlookers began to call it Ajoko-mo-gbe-odo and was later shortened to Ajomogbodo for easy pronunciation. This is a documentary that tells the story and shows the performance of Ajomogbodo, a mystical Egungun that sits comfortably on space without the use of a chair or stool.
