In the heart of South East London, the vibrant community of Ekiti people from Nigeria gathered once again for their annual celebration. This tradition has blossomed into a hallmark of unity, purpose, and cultural pride. This event, eagerly anticipated by Ekitis across the United Kingdom, transcends mere festivity; it is a jubilant affirmation of their shared heritage and communal strength.

Burgess Park, the chosen venue, buzzed with excitement as attendees from various parts of the UK, and even friends from other backgrounds, converged to partake in the merriment. The park, bathed in favorable weather as if constantly allied with the celebrants, set the perfect backdrop for a day filled with cheers, laughter, and heartfelt reunions.
