Nigerian festivals have always been such which leaves an astonishing impression and makes you wonder if the dreadful stories of its economic crisis are actually true. We always tend to pull the “against all odds” stunts to show who we are, and what we’re made of.
The 2024 Ojude Oba, and Durbar festivals, both associated with the annual Muslim Ileya-festival, was of course as relentlessly jaw-dropping as possible, as we once again chose to go turn-up in every shades of glamour and splendour.
Beautiful faces brimming with so much valour and vitality, of young and old alike. One could assume everyone owned to to an imaginary theme of “Steeze upon steeze” . And for a movement, everyone, including bystanders were absolved of the worries of what tomorrow would be like in this trying times of our dear country.
But of course, the drip must not be dampen, as we can never afford to be caught unfresh. Why because, before anything else, we are Nigerians, and would remain as one.
