A
number of Nigerian musicians are billed to entertain dignitaries at the
centenary anniversary celebration billed to take place tonight at the
national stadium.
Among the musicians are Prof Laz Ekwueme, Sir Victor Olaiya, Tuface Idibia, Cobham Asuquo, and Omawunmi Megbele.
Cobham
Asuquo, who spoke to City News during the final rehearsals, said he was
humbled by the experience. “As history and as people, it’s really the
highest point of my career,” he said. “It’s amazing working with the
people to recreate the story of the people.”
On
his part, Prof Ekwueme said it was going to be a big show. “I am here
with my 60 voices members of my choral group,” he said. “It is going to
be more of dance and masquerade so spectacular, we will sing patriotic
songs; we have to imbibe the sense of patriotism as a country.”
