Staff Cultural Insight 2, from our amazing Project Support, Ogechi ❤️
I am from the Niger Delta part of Nigeria. The Niger Delta is such a culturally rich and diverse region! It's well-known for its vibrant traditions, festivals, and deep connection to water and nature, with the various ethnic groups like the Ijaw, Urhobo, Isoko, and others each adding unique customs, music, and dances. Traditional attire in the Niger Delta, like the wrap-style cloth, coral beads, and distinctive hats, holds a lot of significance, symbolizing heritage and status.
The region is also celebrated for its delicious cuisine, often featuring seafood, cassava, and plantains.
