Statement

Di3n Koûri at Nadowli. This is popularly called Jazz. There can be a fusion of the Xylophone with these instruments to create nice music for local dance.
This should be preferred to the Sound System where all sorts of circular music are played at late hours during funerals. This encourages lateness to school by students as they mostly patronise such events.
In Nadowli for instance, playing dance with loud speakers during funerals has been banned. This is a good move as it use to encourage profanity among young girls and boys.
Cultural dance and instruments over circular music.
