Last December, the people of Ogu-Bolo the largest community in Rivers’ State, marked the 5th Anniversary of Ogu Festival, and in custom celebration, a Peace Concert was held at Ogu to raise a toast to half a decade of harmonious peace in the communities since 2009.
AY, I Go
Dye, Seyilaw, Prince Hezekiah, Pencil and Whale Mouth were comedians who hit their
comic bests and split-sides on the night ensuring that hitherto contending
brothers laugh over Champagnes and more hysterically, and over one another’s
shoulders.
After the
Comedy Stretch, Headie’s Revelation of the Year, Sean Tizzle, lit-up the Stage
with show-stopping songs in the tunes of Sho Le, and Mama E. Then, Burna Boy bounced on stage for a
crowd-thrilling enactment.
And just
before the end-of-the-year-partying community dispersed, AY presented on stage,
the Limpopo King and undisputed Pull-Over Champion – KCEE, for an eclectic and
roof-raising performance to wrap up another electrifying night peaceful-fun.
Speaking
after the Concert, Dick Willy the President of Ogu Focus Group, organizers of
the Concert said: “For 5 Years, we have mastered the act of warranting sustainable
Peace in Ogu-Bolo. We know our people are absolute Merry –Makers, having Fun is
for us a second skin. So above hate,
malice, violent, and hurt, we threw up one of the many great things that unify
us. The result is half a decade of
lasting peace within the Communities.”
“Of course,”
Wike said in conclusion, “we dedicate this Peace-Achievement to the great
fun-loving people of Ogu-Bolo Community.”
