- Description
- Efemena means my wealth in Urhobo and Efe means wealth. The lions in this piece are used to symbolize power and authority. The instrument on the left is called a shekere, while the instrument on the right is called a talking drum. These instruments originated from West Africa and are popularly used in my home country, Nigeria. The cloth he is wearing is a representation of the Isi Agu (lion’s head) cloth which are mostly worn by Igbo people from the south eastern part of Nigeria.
