GOWON, a captivating stage play, will be happening this weekend at the Agip Recital Hall, Muson Centre, Lagos, on August 24th and 25th, 2024.
Directed by the esteemed Prof. Ahmed Yerima, GOWON takes you on a journey through Nigeria’s history, focusing on the life and legacy of General Yakubu Gowon, former military head of state.
The play features an exceptional cast, including the celebrated British-Nigerian actress Tayo Elesin as Victoria Gowon, alongside Patrick Diabuah, Funsho Adeolu, Nedu Wazobia, and Yinka Davies.
