This is very popular among the Tiv people in central Northern Nigeria. It is a recreational dance done by both male and female in a circular form alongside singing and dance to sounds produced from both Tiv and Hausa tribe. The accelerated part of the dance is when a solo dancer takes the stage and improvises freely.
This dance is really wonderful and exciting I have seen a benueman dancing it and I wasn't tempted to join in. It was exciting to watch but not for practicals. I might just end up having very painful joints the next morning
