"Kple kple", the first set of masks to appear during "goli" celebrations, represent the junior male society and are used to announce the arrival of "goli glin" and "kpan".
Worn by young boys, "kple kple" dances are said to be one of the easiest to perform; the masqueraders chase boys and girls around the village and perform lively dances to music.
