What is Otunsi?

Otunsi is a sacred spiritual instrument used by Nri priests in Igbo tradition to remove abominations and restore purity to the land. Given by Chukwu Okike to the ancient ancestors known as Ndi Egede, Otunsi carries the divine authority to cleanse the land and its people whenever spiritual pollution occurs. It remains a powerful symbol of healing, balance, and sacred responsibility in Igbo culture.
