Naija-tales: Tell it Like a Nigerian

Naija-tales: Tell it Like a Nigerian

This is a past event

Scottish International Storytelling Festival

Co-sponsored by the Elphinstone Institute and the Grampian Association of Storytellers

How did dogs come to live with humans and how many skyscrapers can one count on the Lagos skyline? The Nigerian saying, ‘Naija no dey carry last’ (Nigerians never finish last), is at the heart of Lola Dabiri’s storytelling. This evening of tales will begin by going all the way back to the traditional tales of Lola’s ancestors before moving on to stories that reflect the beating hearts of Nigerians around the world today.
