Ilé TüntunIlé Tüntun is a lukumi house based in Havana with a pronounced African bent. The babalawos wear African clothes and are keen students of traditions from the motherland. They work with Taiwo Abimbola, son of Wande Abimbola, one of the 16 babalawos of Ife, Nigeria. Wande Abimbola is Awise Awo Ni Agbaye, "spokesperson and ambassador for the Yorůbá religion and culture in the world." Frank Cabrera, Obe Che, is a babalawo whose lineage comes from Miguel Febles Padron -- Febles learned from the old masters in Palmiras, a small town in Cienfuegos. Febles is the padrino who propagated lukumi religion in many parts of Latin America, including Mexico and Venezuela. Ilé Tüntun similarly has a very wide reach.
