Ogwashi-Ukwu Carnival

The Ogwashi-Ukwu Carnival in Delta State Nigeria is an annual festival that was initiated to promote the image of Ogwashi-Uku through culture and dance, as well as develop their heritage.

Ogwashi-Uku carnival is a yearly parade of the people of the town of Ogwashi-Uku which usually starts from 25th December 2023, and accommodates home and abroad-based sons and daughters of the town.

The aim of the carnival is to promote brotherhood globally through indigenous culture and dance whilst developing the heritage, and social unity of the Ogwashi-Uku Kingdom.

The carnival also showcases the existence of the people as well as empowers the youths in several areas viz; economic freedom through the creation of social avenues.

Active participation in all the cultural activities involved in this festival, and the entertainment it offers help to export the Nigerian culture internationally, thereby making the youths and indigenes to be recognized where ever they find themselves.
