VIDEOS & PHOTOS: NIGERIA DAY At AFRICA OLYMPIC VILLAGE, KENSINGTON GARDENS | LONDON 2012 OLYMPIC

Yesterday [July 30] was NIGERIA DAY at the Africa Olympic Village, Hyde Park, it was an event designed to showcase Nigeria and the achievements of its people. The village was put together by Association of National Olympic Committee of Africa (ANOCA).

Beautiful organization and co-ordination…kudos to Mr. Goke Dokun, CEO of IMPC Limited and the brain behind Nigeria official Stand (WAZOBIA LOUNGE) at the Africa Games Village.

During my chat with Goke Dokun, he said:
“We approached the Federal Ministry of Sports for sponsorship but up till now we haven’t heard from them. But thank goodness for organizations like First Bank Plc for their support and Western MoneyGram, UK”…I paid through my nose to buy this stand, but if I do not profit at the end of the day, I would be glad that Nigeria image would at least been put in right perspective during the games”.
The Blogger and Mr. Goke Dokun, CEO of IMPC Limited 
Beautiful wall paintings on display at the stand were given FREELY by UK resident Nigerian great artist, Chinwe Chukwuogo-Roy [MBE] to support Goke Dokun…Chinwe is an artist of international repute, she received worldwide recognition for painting the official Golden Jubilee portrait of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II…She said:
“When I heard about the Nigeria Stand and story of non-governmental participation/sponsorship, I felt obliged to support Goke by giving these paintings freely for display”.  Chinwe asked, “What about the Nigeria Art Gallery?” Aren’t they (Federal Ministry of Culture & Tourism) supposed to be here?
Chinwe Chukwuogo-Roy [MBE] with the Blogger - (In the Middle Her Grand Daughter)

Couple of Nigerian celebrities were on hand including ElDeeTheDon who thrilled guests to a good time, former super eagles defender, Danny Shittu also visited…DJ Abass lived up to expectation as usual…
Below are some images from the event...

ALASHOCK’S BLOG ON VACATION…MY APOLOGIES FOR NOT POSTING | MY EXPLANATION | MY WAKANOW STORY…

I am so sorry, I owe you guys some explanations…LOL. A couple of days now I have not been able to blog as usual; Reason? It’s the time of the year I normally go on annual holiday…

Again, apologies I didn’t give an advance notice….

Interestingly the holiday clashes with the on-going London 2012 Olympics…Though I have no single Olympic game ticket because the sole Olympic Ticketing agent in Nigeria (i.e. Wakanow) was not willing to sell just tickets alone to Nigerians. According to them, “we only sell Olympic tickets with Return Flight tickets and/or hotel accommodation”.
