CNN Gets A Taste Of How To Party, Nigerian Style - Owambe! by infonubia(m): 5:13am On Jun 19, 2013 |
So I looked up the meaning of "Owambe" on the internet and here's how the Urban Dictionary defines it: A large, grandiose party thrown by Nigerians anywhere in the world, especially Yoruba Nigerians that involves a lot of food, dancing, loud music, and spraying (Nigerian term meaning the act of throwing money on a dancing person)...These parties take days and sometimes weeks and months of preparation, and have been known to block entire streets and roads, especially in Lagos, Nigeria. Ex: My aunt threw an owambe to celebrate my college graduation. CNN correspondent Vladimir Duthiers takes us through the colorful and extravagant nature of a typical Lagos party. Watch the video and share your thoughts. See more at: http://www.infonubia.com/2013/06/cnn-gets-taste-of-how-to-party-nigerian.html#sthash.nAm2hCjr.dpuf |
