The Felabration 2022 event themed: “Fear not for man” hosted by the Kuti family has been an exhilarating event so far.
It began on Monday, 10th of October 2022 with a Jazz and Soul concert at the Felabration primary venue; the New Afrika Shrine at Alausa, Ikeja, Lagos state. The concert had beautiful performances from various artists like: JesutomiImole, BalogunEko, Brass, BandUche, Obi Drums, Amphitheater and more.
The event continued on Tuesday and was tagged “Old School Evergreen”. The event had many old school artistes perform to the ever enthusiastic audience. The artist that performed include: Star Kids Dance Academy, Gboyega Adelaja, Poskii, Wura Samba, Baba Ani, Prince Ej Orlando Jnr, Amphitheater and SPAN Academy of Jazz & Contemporary Music
Apart from the musical concerts, there have also been a series of other activities such as an art competition where the winner took home a whopping sum of N500,000 as prize money, a dance competition where the winners took home N1,000,000, and even a symposium.
The Symposium was themed: “Election 2023: Action time” and the keynote speaker was Dr. Hakeem Baba-Ahmed. There were other notable attendees of the symposium like legendary Nigerian musician Charles Chukwuemeka Oputa popularly known as Charly Boy.
The Felabration has so far lived up to every single expectation of raw energy and pure vibes. The originality of Fela’s style has been very evident in every single event that has taken place thus far.
The event is set to come to an end on Sunday 16th of October 2022; if you have not attended any of the events I would encourage you to do so.
