Drummers
Apr 29, 2025 4:00 PM • Hall
World Drummers Day 2025 was marked with grandeur at the National Theatre on April 4, as GM/CEO Mrs. Tola Akerele hosted alongside Olori Amb. Dr. Temitope Enitan-Ogunwusi, with traditional leaders, Hajja Katume Bulama Gana of the National Troupe, and star drummer Ara in attendance.
The celebration carried added weight as it coincided with the anniversary of Chief Hubert Ogunde, father of Nigerian theatre, honored in Akerele’s moving tribute.
Awards were presented by the Olori Ooni of Ife before the festivities erupted into a spirited drum party, with dignitaries taking turns on the drums, while the National Troupe filled the hall with vibrant rhythms and dance, creating a truly electrifying atmosphere.
