Nigerians in the UK, get ready! Mo Abudu, the powerhouse behind EbonyLife Group, is bringing Naija Creates to London this summer, a game-changing event that will put Nigerian creativity on the global map. 🇳🇬✨
What’s Naija Creates? Naija Creates is more than just an event—it’s a movement! This platform will showcase Nigeria’s finest talents in fashion, music, art, film, and food, while also focusing on monetisation and global expansion for Nigerian creatives. With the UK’s vibrant Nigerian community and strong cultural ties, this is the perfect stage to celebrate and elevate Naija talent to the world. 🌍🔥
Government Support & Vision Mo Abudu recently met with Vice President Kashim Shettima, who fully supports the initiative and sees it as a way to boost Nigeria’s economy through creative exports. He believes Naija Creates can serve as Nigeria’s flagship cultural diplomacy initiative, promoting our rich heritage through arts, music, fashion, and entertainment on the global stage.
He also invited Abudu to collaborate with the federal government’s iDICE team, which focuses on technology and creative industry development. With government backing, this initiative is poised to open more international doors for Nigerian creatives.
Why This Matters for Nigerians in the UK For the Nigerian diaspora in the UK, Naija Creates is an opportunity to connect with homegrown talent, investors, and industry leaders. It’s also a space to experience the best of Naija creativity, whether it’s through music performances, fashion showcases, film screenings, or food tastings.
This event is set to attract global investors, decision-makers, and key players in the entertainment and creative industries, making it a must-attend for Nigerian creatives, entrepreneurs, and enthusiasts in the UK.
Mo Abudu’s Vision Speaking about the project, Abudu said:
“Naija Creates is the next step in positioning Nigeria’s creative industry as a global economic powerhouse. We have incredible talent, innovation, and culture, but now we must turn that into commercial success. Nigeria’s creative economy is a sleeping giant, and structured properly, it can rival oil and gas in economic impact.”
With Lagos Canvas as the headline sponsor and the momentum building, Naija Creates is set to revolutionize how Nigerian creativity is seen and valued worldwide. This is our time to shine! 🌟
