Coconut Residence in collaboration with Virtual Exchange
Production recently hosted Nigeria’s music sensation, Chinedu Okoli (aka
Flavour) last week in The Gambia with Independence Flavour Concert which held at Banjul National Stadium, Gambia. More
The concert was part of the country’s 49th
Independence celebrations, which had over 7,000 fans in attendance. They
include, Her Excellency Aja, Dr. Isatou Njie – Said, The Gambia’s Vice
President and other government officials, who all came to see Flavour perform
in Gambia for the first time.
During the concert, Flavour also donated materials like
exercise books, mathematical sets, stationeries and refreshments to Jammeh
Foundation For Peace Orphanage.
Flavour said: “ Through my charity, Mr. Chinedu Okoli
Music Foundation, I want to touch the lives
of the needy wherever I go beyond music in simple ways that I can. I want to
put smiles on the face of people and help them. It’s The Gambia’s independence
and this is my first time here. I’ve chosen to remember children at the Jammeh
Foundation for Peace Orphanage to contribute my quota to their development.
“ It’s not all about giving a great performance at concerts
and collecting performance fees and spend it alone. No! but it’s also about
contributing to the lives of the people of the various countries we visit who
genuinely need help.”
During the show, the fans danced to some of Flavour’s hit
tracks while some of them cried in excitement for having the opportunity of
seeing the music icon.
