A never-been-seen kind of event in Nigeria is set to hit town. Tagged: “Made in Nigeria Festival”, it is a concept which seeks to unite, celebrate and empower Nigerians.

Made in Nigeria Festival is the brainchild of three intelligent youngmen, Ezekiel Adamu, Samson Adamu and Akin Osho who have excelled in their chosen fields.
