The chief priest announces the sighting of the new moon (which must be sighted before beginning the festival) by blowing the ''upe'' (local trumpet) for seven days. Nine days after the sighting of the new moon, the king sends an emissary to officially announce the ceremony. Preparations for the festival include the repairing of bridges and clearing of footpaths. The festival continues with a vigil called Ilagun, Asoro or aisun ogun which takes place three days before the Ogun day. The blacksmiths of the [[Ife|city of Ife]] donate new cutlasses, hoes and bell gongs, and the shrine is beautified with palm fronds, cowries and other items. [[Libation]] is then poured, a ritual dance is conducted around the shrine, and prayers are offered.

This is to make him pure and ensure the efficacy of his prayers. Before the Ooni emerges, women from his maternal and paternal families sweep the Palace, symbolically ridding the Palace of evil.<ref name=":0" /><ref name=":1" /> The Ooni later appears in public with the Are crown (King’s Crown), which is believed to be the original crown used by Oduduwa to lead a procession of traditional Chiefs and Priests to perform at the Shrine of Ogun. The next stage of the ceremony is to lead the crowd to Okemogun’s shrine. Here he performs duties including the renewal of oath, divination for the Ooni at the foot of Oketage hill by Araba (Chief Priest), as well as visiting places of historical importance.<ref>{{Cite web|last=Ihejirika|first=Uzoma|date=2021-07-09|title=Olojo Festival|url=https://folio.ng/olojo-festival/|access-date=2021-08-31|website=Folio|language=en-US}}</ref> At the shrine, the traditional Chiefs with the swords of office marked with chalk and cam wood, appear in ceremonial attire and dance to rhythms from [[Bembe (drumming)|Bembe]], a traditional drum. The style of drum and singing for each Chief is different. Only the Ooni can dance to the drum called Osirigi. The Ifá Festival is a seven-day festival that takes place every year on the first Saturday in June. Ifá (also known as [[Ọrunmila]]) is an oracle deity and one of the Yoruba people's most important deities. The first day of the festival includes rituals such as Ijawe Ifá Ooni (leaf picking for Ooni's oracle) and Arisun Idana Afin (a culinary vigil at the palace), while the second day is dedicated to Bibo Ifa Ooni (sacrifice for Ooni's oracle). The third and fourth days are dedicated to Awo Oloju merindinlogun performing rites (a cult with sixteen faces). A public lecture and roundtable discussion on 'women in Ifa,' as well as a performance of rituals by a priest named Araba Agbaye, took place on the fifth day. The great climax, which begins on Saturday and lasts until early the next day, includes iwure (blessings/prayer) by Araba Agbaye (backbone of the universe) and other Arabas, as well as the feeding of Ifa and the crafting of the year's divination.<ref>{{Cite web|title=Ifa Festival, Ile-Ife Osun State of Nigeria :: Nigeria Information & Guide|url=https://www.nigeriagalleria.com/Nigeria/States_Nigeria/Osun/Ifa-Festival-Ile-Ife-Osun.html|access-date=2021-07-31|website=www.nigeriagalleria.com}}</ref> Olojo has remained popular in Ile-Ife because of its myth and history. It connotes the day in the year specially blessed by [[Olodumare]] (the creator of the Universe). Olojo can also be literally translated as the "Owner for the day". Prayers are offered for peace and tranquility in Yoruba and Nigeria. All age groups participate. Its significance is the unification of the Yoruba. Tradition holds that Ile-Ife is the cradle of the Yorubas, the city of survivors, spiritual seat of the Yorubas, and land of the ancients. == References == {{Reflist}} * Olubunmi, A.O.
