Omenana Cultural Event

As some of you may know, I'm African...Nigerian to be specific.

With my ethnic background, comes culture...and with that comes the celebration of said culture. 
On Saturday, my family and I went to an event called the 'Omenana Cultural Event'. 
I saw family that I haven't seen in years, managed to take some pictures, and even recorded a few videos. There were a lot more performances that I didn't catch on film (my phone and camera died)
It was a really fun night.


Yummy!
I was offered some kola nut; blech.
