US capitol Washington DC declares October 1 Nigerian-American Day

The declaration is in consonance in celebration of Nigeria’s 62nd Independence Day anniversary.Bowser noted that the District of Columbia had one of the largest Nigerian immigrant populations in America.

The Mayor hailed the contributions of Nigerian-Americans some of whom are civic leaders, innovators, and entrepreneurs. Bowser said Nigerian music and art, particularly Afrobeats and Nollywood, enrich the cultural economy and strengthen cultural ties. The Nigerian Center provides a platform for heritage preservation and expands the pathways for Nigerian immigrants to become Nigerian-Americans.

“The city’s Office on African Affairs works with the Nigerian Center to foster economic inclusion and advancement and to promote Nigerian culture”, Bowser noted.The establishment offers financial inclusion and social justice opportunities for members of the Nigerian-American community in the U.S..

Hope ASUU strike,endemic & 36 karat CORRUPTION in high places, Fulani & ISLAMIC SUBJUGATION, BIGOTRY & DOMINANCE, BOKO HARAMISM, Abductions, Terrorism, Banditry, to mention but just a marginal few, are not part of the 'Nigerian Culture' you mean here...

I believe you mean well, my Lord Mayor.

Cool! 👍
