Kwatha Pham Kaaba (The Great Kwatha Accession)

Kwatha, a small hamlet still preserves the culture and rites against the changes of modern times. Kwatha is run by 12 headmen with a village chief on top of the hierarchy. Its population does not even exceed 500 people yet they seem to lead a structured society with a complex administration in the division of labour. Their rituals and customs are unique and not found elsewhere. When a village headman is deceased or indisposed, the accession of a new headmen is celebrated as a huge festival in Kwatha.
