Goge Africa seeks support for 25th anniversary festival

Goge Africa, a renowned media and culture brand, has made a passionate appeal to the government, corporate organisations, and culture enthusiasts to support the upcoming Goge Africa Festival, commemorating its 25th anniversary.

Nneka Isaac-Moses, Managing Director of Goge Africa made the call in a statement on Sunday, in Lagos.

She said the festival, scheduled to take place from 26 to 27 October at the Onikan Stadium in Lagos, aimed to celebrate Nigeria and Africa’s rich cultural heritage and empower the continent’s collective future.

Isaac-Moses emphasised the significance of this milestone, stating that the festival would serve as a driver of economic growth and cultural pride, creating thousands of jobs and stimulating local and national economies.

According to her, with over 20,000 attendees expected and 40 million viewers tuning in globally, the festival promises to be a massive platform for local and international investment, positioning Lagos as a leading hub for African arts and culture.

Isaac-Moses highlighted Goge Africa’s impressive track record, having generated employment for over 100,000 Nigerians and trained 1,750 youths in tourism over the past 25 years.

She said in spite of this, the organisation had never received financial support from the Nigerian government.

She appealed to President Bola Tinubu, Gov. Babajide Sanwo-Olu, and other stakeholders to rally behind the festival, emphasising that supporting it would be an investment in Africa’s cultural identity, economy, and youth.
