Sharo is a traditional Fulani practice that involves a public flogging contest between two young men in order to prove their bravery and endurance. The practice is also known as "Fulani whipping" or "Flogging for love". The contestants are typically from different clans and the event is witnessed by other members of the community. The practice typically takes place during special events, such as weddings or religious festivals. The men are expected to show no signs of pain or distress during the flogging, and the one who endures the most lashes without showing any discomfort is declared the winner. Sharo is considered an important rite of passage for young Fulani men, as it is seen as a way to demonstrate their bravery, strength, and resilience.
