[[Polygamy]] is an accepted practice among men.

When someone dies in Bangui a representative from his or her village attends the funeral. "This person is charged with indicating to the deceased the way back home so that the deceased may avenge himself and herself and demonstrate the power of the family".{{Sfn|Woodfork|2006|p=145}} The representative who attends the funeral also carries a little dust from the grave to the village, and gives it to the village's [[medicine man]] so that he can ascertain the reasons for his death.{{Sfn|Woodfork|2006|p=145}}

Most of the holidays in Bangui are festivals related to the Christian and Muslim faiths and are the same as those observed in other parts of the world. National holidays include Independence Day and the birthdays of Boganda and several other national heroes.{{Sfn|Woodfork|2006|p=145}}
