African brass bronze Igbo Ofo.
Ogu na Ofo. The ofo is a staff carried by selected Igbo leaders — notably patrilineage priests, kings, onyishi, and some masqueraders — that signifies authority, the right to command, administrative powers, and/or the conferment of leadership and power bestowed by the gods
as I understand it, the original Ofo were comprised of wood, but later many were made of brass, and of other materials
