MASQUE DE MALADIE MBANGU PENDE
Chez les Pende centraux, la danse du Mbangu évoquait l'épileptique et servait d'une certaine façon aux individus à reconsidérer leur attitude face à leurs propres malheurs mais aussi face à la maladie d'autrui.
Sa chanson était :
"Ne te moque pas de ton voisin
Ne ris pas de ton frère
Les sorciers l'ont ensorcelé"
