Details Of My Visit To Antwerp City, Belgium – Senator Ifeanyi Ubah 

Posted on September 3, 2023

Earlier yesterday at Antwerp city of Belgium, I attended the 2023 edition of the Nigerian Arts and Culture Festival organized under the supervision of the Nigerian Ambassador to Belgium H.E Obinna C. Onowu.

The Nigerian Arts and Culture Festival was a celebration of the rich cultural heritage of Nigeria. It provided a platform for Nigerian artists to showcase their talent and for the audience to experience the beauty and diversity of Nigerian arts.

The event was a testament to the strong cultural ties between Nigeria and Belgium and highlighted the importance of fostering international relationships.

During the event which I attended with my Senior Special Assistant on Corporate Contacts; Hon Ifeanyi Nwankwo, my Senior Special Assistant on Special Duties; Mr Mcgoshen Onwunzo, My Special Adviser on Domestic Affairs; Chief Ernest Otugo and his wife, Mrs Felicity Otugo, as well as my Personal Assistant; Mr Chukwuemerie Uduchukwu, I had the opportunity to experience the rich and vibrant Nigerian culture through various art forms, performances, and exhibitions.

The festival also showcased a wide range of Nigerian arts, including traditional music, dance, fashion, visual arts, and literature. The performances were captivating and showcased the diversity and talent of Nigerian artists. From the rhythmic beats of traditional drums to the energetic dance moves, the audience was enthralled by the cultural display.

It was fascinating to see the different interpretations of Nigerian culture and history through these artworks. In addition to the performances and exhibitions, there were also literary sessions where Nigerian authors and poets shared their works. It was a great opportunity to listen to their stories and gain insights into Nigerian literature and storytelling traditions.

I will always remain grateful to the Nigerian Ambassador to Belgium H.E Obinna C. Onowu for inviting me to the colourful event. Our culture is our heritage and we shall always engage in quality partnerships that will strengthen it. Also, big thanks to the Nigerian community in Belgium for honouring me with a warm reception. Together, we shall project our norms and values to the world.

Senator (Dr) Ifeanyi Ubah, CON
