TuFace Join Other Indigenous Musicians for Centenary Celebrations

A number of Nigerian musicians are billed to entertain dignitaries at the centenary anniversary celebration billed to take place tonight at the national stadium.

Among the musicians are Prof Laz Ekwueme, Sir Victor Olaiya, Tuface Idibia, Cobham Asuquo, and Omawunmi Megbele.

Cobham Asuquo, who spoke to City News during the final rehearsals, said he was humbled by the experience. “As history and as people, it’s really the highest point of my career,” he said. “It’s amazing working with the people to recreate the story of the people.”

On his part, Prof Ekwueme said it was going to be a big show. “I am here with my 60 voices members of my choral group,” he said. “It is going to be more of dance and masquerade so spectacular, we will sing patriotic songs; we have to imbibe the sense of patriotism as a country.”
