Excerpts on Abame
.... Abame is a yardstick for measuring the prowess and adulthood of an Igbide man. It is more or less a maturity determinant, a lifeline and source of pride that arouses the inner man in an Igbide.....
........Abame cuts across the religious, educational, social, financial and political standing in Igbide kingdom and held in high esteem by all. It has played a moderating role in covering the excesses of youths and young men which has sometimes caused disqualification from participation which to an Igbide man is worst than imprisonment.
.....Abame imbibes the spirit of team work, unity, clean competition and excitement thus giving meaning and added value to life of all sons and daughters of Igbide through family work...........
