- Description: "When it became clear that my friend had no drums, I went to her to tell her that we had drums." In this area most of the domestic work in European houses is done by men, familiarly called 'boy'.

Migabo is said to be the name of a group of older people, mostly women, who believe in the power of divination to assist their friends and relatives. Migabo divination songs, with 3 conical laced drums, and 4 gourd rattles (-12.54-).
