The
annual cultural carnival that awakens the lost pride of African lifestyle is
here again. The festival which is specifically for variety of cultural displays
(the African way), of different cultural troupes of different tribes within and
outside Lagos, will take centre stage for a full day in Lagos on Dec 16th.
According
to the Founder of Home sweet Home, Uwem Umoh, this year’s event will mesmerise
and captivate the audience. “Our different rich African dishes will be
generously displayed and made available for the people, as well as the locally
made drinks. Aside the cultural display, only African tunes will be performed “live”
by a select few. This is miles away from the regular concert of song miming and
recycling of jokes.
“It
promises to re-enact the nostalgia of the good old days of natural living,
where children run along cheering the masquerades. And adults savour the sight
and tunes.”
The
event is being put together by SOLITAIRE MEDIA ENTERTAINMENT LIMITED, an integrated Marketing
Communications, Entertainment and Events company.
Uwem
Umoh is working alongside a dependable Vice President, Mrs Mandu Umoh, in creating
a platform, to promote the rich African culture and her heritage.
Also
the years’ edition will see the introduction of AFRICAN CULTURE AMBASSADORIAL
AWARDS (AFRICAA). “This rare platform
is to create an avenue where uncelebrated heroes and custodians of our rich
culture will be duly celebrated and internationally recognised. The names of
potential African Culture Ambassadors shall be published soon. We are out to
celebrate achievers in this sector
The
event will take place at The People’s Club, 21 Ajao road, off Ogunlana Drive,
Surulere, 10am to 6pm.
