Asere Homowo In New Jersy

Engaging The Global Ghanaian And African Diaspora

Celebrating Homowo Across Borders

The Homowo Festival, meaning “hooting at hunger”, is the proud heritage of the Ga people of Ghana. It is a time of thanksgiving, unity, and joy—honoring our ancestors and celebrating resilience.

This year, the Asere Traditional Council, under the leadership of HRM Nii Nikoi Olai Amashie III, brings Homowo to the diaspora community in PLainfield, New Jersey, USA. Together, we share the rituals, drumming, dancing, and sprinkling of kpokpoi, keeping our traditions alive while embracing new cultural connections abroad.
