Cultural festivals

Images are not mine, I take no credit for the images.

Hello everyone, how you all doing, hope you had a splendid day, so this post is a weekly contest from the newbie-initiative program, this edition is the week2 edition1 and the first topic is this,

“A CULTURAL FESTIVAL”

Tell us all about a festival that holds in your country that is unique only to your people. And tell us why you enjoy it so much. Or if you don't.

Initially I wanted to skip this first edition, because I thought I haven't been to any cultural festival, until I remember I was at a cultural festival at my mom's home town like 6years back, and I can't really remember the date by I know it was during the festive period,(December), then I asked my mom why they celebrate the cultural festival, she said it was to make people know more about their culture, and during this festival  a lot of food are being prepared ranging from afang soup, ekpangnkukwo, etitaiwa, etc. though I can't remember all the details.

One other festival that is being celebrated here in my country is called the Calabar festival,   the festival is celebrated at cross river state here In Nigeria, a lot of celebrities are invited, even people from other countries do attend, it a festival that many people go out on their way to sponsor, a lot of things are made available during the festival, their clothing for those who will be parading are made available, I actually haven't been opportune to attend this particular CALABAR FESTIVAL.

Because I am not a crowd kind of person, that why I would say I don't like being in such places, and also being a Christian it's against my belief to adore or cherish what is not God.( I'm not being religious)

Thanks for reading.
