📖 Excerpt from the Wikipedia article

Fetu Afahye is a festival celebrated by the chiefs and people of Cape Coast in the Central region of Ghana. The festival is celebrated on the first Saturday in September every year. It is named after the 17th Century Aboriginal Guan Fetu or Effutu kingdom located some 19 kilometers inland of Paramount chief's yam festival and is observed in the form of offering mashed yams to the gods for a successful harvest.
