African culture took over Main Street Thursday, as scores of people lined the road, showcasing their talents in traditional African cooking, clothing design, and craft-making.
Draped in vibrant fabrics, echoing the rhythms of ancestral drums, and proudly representing their heritage, several individuals hailing directly from Africa brought Main Street to life with a stunning cultural exposition in celebration of Emancipation Day.
Guyana Times caught up with several exhibitors and vendors who brought the spirit of the continent to life through their displays.
One Nigerian exhibitor – Joachin Ezeanokws – proudly showcased authentic products and materials commonly used in Nigeria, giving passers-by a taste of African heritage first-hand.
“If you look at my hand, you will see a horse tail and an African attire. This is what the prince, president, and security use to guide the crowd. I am from Nigeria, Africa. For five years, I’ve been offering these products in Guyana and enjoy doing this.”
