The annual Face of Okija Cultural event which takes place in Okija, Anambra State reinforces the values that make us truly African. This 5th Edition is also packed with numerous cultural performances such as the legendary Nkpokiti dancers, Atilogwu dancers, Igbo Jaa Ogene Group, Ohafia war dance, Hunter’s dance by Obi Troop and others.

The biennial King & Queen Face of Okija Cultural Pageant is also scheduled to take place this year.  This culture inspired pageant which is dynamic and unmatched, produces the finest young people with great qualities that are worthy of emulation.  This pageant empowers our youths and gives them the opportunity  of serving and giving back to our communities and the society.  The prizes for the winners are designed to make a lifetime impact.

This is The Pageant with a difference.

It’s important to note that this year’s Face Of Okija will also showcase inspiring stories from the Obijackson women and Children’s Hospital and the ways in which the hospital is transforming maternal, neonatal and child health care in Nigeria. Attend Face Of Okija this holiday to rediscover what it means to be truly African. A great and exciting outing for the entire family.
