I have never been a party person. But lately, circumstances have led me to three different parties in just about three months (I know.. for some people that’s not a lot). These parties have led me to some conclusions – Nigerians are interesting and beautiful people. They spend money. They eat. They give souvenirs. They DANCE!

I love Owanbes (Nigerian parties), because you’ll find:

Food

Food

And more food

Old men with talking drums and Fuji bands that just won’t give up

Different beautiful Ankara prints!!

Young ladies rocking really high heels (rather confidently)

Money spraying!!

And very recently, I saw these Awilo boys at a party. I was scared + shocked + confused.. but hey, I took a picture.

I wish I was more of a party person so I’ll have more pictures that showcase how interesting an Owambe is… but till then, y’all just have to trust me when I say ‘People don’t dull at an Owambe!’
