Traditional Nigerian fertility event designed to help wives conceive is criticised for being a 'rape festival' after multiple attacks are carried out on women
2026-05-06
The Alue-Do festival is traditionally celebrated by members of the Oramudu community and is intended to help married women struggling to conceive through prayer, community blessings and symbolic rituals.

In a statement, organisers described Alue-Do as a fertility ritual in which symbolic acts such as dragging people or pouring sand on them are believed to bring blessings to couples struggling to have children.

They also dismissed claims of widespread sexual violence as 'false and misleading', despite the numerous videos circulating online.
