RELIGIOUS BELIEFS
Tiv religious thought is hinged on three basic concepts: Aondo, Tsav and Akombo. These concepts work together for stability, harmony and communal well-being. Aondo lived near the earth but was forced to retreat into the skies after he was struck by a woman pounding food. Aondo is therefore considered to be the hand of God in the physical setting as in rain (Aondongu noon), thunder (Aondongukumen) lightning (Aondongunyiar) and sun light (Aondo ta yange).

One of the things the Tiv people are known for when it comes to food, is their love for yams. It is often said that a Tiv man can comfortably have fried yam for breakfast, yam porridge for lunch and pounded yam for dinner.
