Amid the Frontier Naga Territory demand by the people of Eastern Nagaland, approximately 25 km away from Mokokchung town, Chuchuyimlang village showcased a spirit of kinship and community bonding among the Ao Nagas and Eastern Nagas during the Moatsü festival celebration on Thursday, 2 May 2024.

The Moatsü festival hosted by Chuchuyimlang village held at the Anü Mai Amphitheatre, featured diverse cultural performances by troupes from various Naga communities, including Ukha (Konyak), Yangpi (Chang), Yaongyimchen (Phom), and Unger (Ao), each adding their unique flair to the festivities.

The Ukha Cultural Troupe from Mon district served as poignant reminders of ancestral heritage, with references to migration narratives and the enduring spirit of unity among Naga communities. They showcased a folk dance showing that they were there to make their ancestors proud who came out like termites from “Longai Khai” or “Longtrok,” who flew like the famed hornbill birds toward the east and nestled at “Yingnye Ki” (beyond the mountains) situated in Longleng district.

The Konyak Nagas also acknowledged former pastors and teachers including Imnalepden, Takok, Lipok, Amaktoshi, Imnatoshi, and Marsosang for taking them from “darkness to light with passion and integrity.” They said they were there for their ancestral brothers to rejuvenate the feeling of unity and togetherness as they were since time immemorial.

Wongpa Konyak, president of the Ukha Students’ Union, shared his excitement to be at the Moatsü festival stating that they want to expose their culture to the rest of Nagaland. “Nagas are one,” Wongpa tells Mokokchung Times, adding that the demand for FNT stems from the necessity for basic amenities in Eastern Nagaland. “We love the Naga brothers and sisters but we are demanding our basic necessities. We stand firmly with ENPO,” he said.
