Freedom Vibes 7.0 Naija Day
Unchained Vibes Africa cordially invites you to Freedom Vibes 7.0 Naija Day aimed at celebrating Nigeria’s diverse cultural heritage.
The 2023 general elections in Nigeria have been widely criticized as the most divisive elections since the country’s return to democracy in 1999. Desperate politicians exploited Nigeria’s diversity negatively and weaponized ethnicity in a bid to win elections. As a result, ethnic division has widened and mutual suspicion has worsened among Nigerians.
The Naija Day event is designed to raise awareness about the dangers of ethnic and religious politics, contribute to the healing process, rebuild mutual trust, rekindle the hope for a better Nigeria, celebrate Nigeria’s diversity, and unite citizens in the struggle for good governance.
There will be an emphasis on the importance of intercultural understanding and national unity and also spotlight the contemporary arts and cultural expressions from minority ethnic groups with less visibility at national gatherings
The event will feature a colorful cultural procession, green carpet interviews, contemporary cultural displays, exhibitions by art and craft vendors, and a concert headlined by leading Nigerian musicians and comedians.
Date: Saturday, 28th October 2023

Calling all future scientists, engineers and architects! We’ve got the tools; we need you to bring your imagination for innovation.
Glass, as a material, has been with man since the advent of both oral and recorded history. On May 18, 2021, The United Nations declared the year 2022 as the International Year of Glass (IYOG).
Glass is a resource efficient material. It is a sustainable, fully recyclable material, which can be recycled in close loop over and over again. It may define the truly circular product!
Glass is also highly appreciated in many applications for its inert nature and its contributions to safeguarding people’s health and wellbeing. It provides great environmental benefits such as contributing to mitigating climate change and saving precious natural resources.
