Sir Shina Peters To Rock Owambe Saturday
Coronavirus pandemic has definitely disrupted a lot of activities including the entertainment world.
Before the outbreak of COVID-19 in Nigeria, weekends for Nigerians especially Lagosian are for Owambe parties but with the new norms people are now confined to sit in their homes on weekends without the feel of any party.
But recently a show tagged ‘Owambe Saturday’ was launched on May 30, 2020, to fill the vacuum created as a result of the social distancing measure put in place in order to curb the spread of COVID-19.
Owambe is a borrowed language from the Yoruba language which is used to describe the Nigerian spirit of celebration that is characterized by pomp and pageantry, extravaganza and paparazzi, luxury, and lavish spending, and lots of food, music, and dance.
The programme airs on Africa Magic and is expected to run for 10 weeks.
On Saturday, July 18, the famous juju star, Sir Shina Peters, will on entertain viewers of the Owambe Saturday show on Africa Magic.
Sir Shina Peters will be bringing a blend of the best of Fela’s Afro and the beauty of the late Ayinde Barrister’s Fuji, mixed with the fast-pitched heavy drumming and swings of disco lovers to the show this weekend.
Sir Shina Peters will be performing live and those who have missed Owambes for weeks can have a feel of a first-rate.
