To marry a woman from these African tribes, you need to wrestle to win her heart

The Sharo Festival of the Fulani…Omenka Online

Fulani Tribe

The Fulani people inhabit West Africa and the Sahel region. They have a tradition called sharo.

Sharo occurs when two men wish to marry the same woman. In order to determine who will marry the lady, the men engage in a battle in which they have to suppress their pain.

The one who shows no signs of “weakness” wins the lady’s hand in marriage.
