By Chiagoziem Onyekwena

This year’s edition of the Naija Corner at the Nottinghill Carnival was themed ‘Getting close-up to our motherland’ and the intention was to project the best of Nigeria to the rest of the world, hence the decision to include several Nollywood stars and dozens of Nigerian musicians. The party was packaged to bring outstanding Nigerians in the UK together and celebrate their achievements.

Notthinghill Carnival is the second largest street carnival in the world. The carnival started in the UK as a Afro-Caribbean festival in 1965 and it has continually held annually in the city of London ever since. The first Nigerian corner debuted on August 31, 2009

This year’s Nigerian Corner was organised by Reve Entertainment and Sodium Brand Solution, and Supported by NET, Primetime Entertainment, BlackHouse Media, Digiprint and HipHopWorld Magazine.

Guests included DJ Abass, Abike Dabiri, Ayo Animashaun, Keke and D-One, Banky W, 9ice, Jaywon, FEMI, JJC, Mode 9, Ayo Shonaiya, Tony Agenmonmen, Kunle Bakare, Bisi Olatilo, Azuh Arinze, Julius Agwu, Kingsley James, Jaiye Opayemi and Funke Akindele.
