VIDEO: KUHIS boys perform Candle Night to face WASSCE.
According to interaction with some students, this is not a ritual affiliated to any tradition.
“It is something we do to ease ourselves of the stress and nervousness for our final examinations.
We feel united when we perform the Candle Night.”
Although the name implies “Candle Night”, the fire is not actually from a candle but rather, fire set in a stack of woods.
