What's The Point Of Carnivals In Nigeria? by ezeagu(m): 1:56am On Nov 04, 2015
Carnivals were a way the African diaspora remembered, maintained, and connected to their roots and kept whatever they allowed to or whatever they can remember. The original versions of carnival are alive throughout Nigeria in the form of masquerading institutions. So what's the point of importing carnivals? Isn't it like missing the dining table and eating the vomit?
