After many over speculations about the ethnic groups in Nigeria, many people are yet to believe that the country has over 300 ethnic group. But the fact is that, there are some cultural and traditional festivals that can attract tourist from all over the globe, but the problem is still lack of awareness and sensitization. I am very much aware of the following festivals in Nigeria. 1. Osun Osogbo festival......Osun state 2. Argungu Fishing Festival......Kebbi state 3. Eyo Festival..........Lagos state 4. Macuf Festival........Machina, Yobe state 5. Olojo Festival......Ife, Osun state 6. Iwude Festival........... Ogun state 7. Oke Ibadan Festival.......Ibadan, Oyo state 8.New Yam Festival..........Enugu state 9. Sango Festival..........Southwest 10. Ogun festival............Southwest Imagine, I can only remember 10 out of many beautiful cultural festivals that is celebrated across the country. NL, can you pls identify your own cultural festival and let's promote our identity right from here. Thanks. |
