It was a great fanfare in Obollo, Udenu Local Government Area of Enugu State, as her people on 27th December, 2023 commemorated this year's edition of Olenyi Obollo festival.
The festival was starstrucked with top government dignitaries and captains of industries in attendance.
These included, the Deputy Governor of Enugu State, His Excellency Barr. Ifeanyi Ossai, the member representing Udenu in Enugu State House of Assembly, Hon. Solomon Onah, the Commissioner for information and Communication, Aka Eze Aka, Commissioner for Culture and Tourism, Dame Ugochi Madueke, and a host of others.
The festival had also in attendance almost all the traditional rulers in Obollo.
There were displays of types of masqueraders such as izaga, akatakpa, Enyi, gburrgburr, obollo Ag'Ag', igele accompanied by frenzied groups that supplied their respective music.
The Deputy Governor, Barr. Ossai was visibly impressed by the rich cultural display of Ndi Obollo and was seen dancing gracefully with various groups. Officers of the Federal Ministry of Culture also graced the occasion.
It was indeed a memorable festival as the masquaerades and dance groups thrilled the mammoth crowd with their performances.
The highlight of the occasion was the traditional prayer for sons and daughters as well as the land of Obollo by the eldest man in Obollo called the Esha.
Ndi obollo used the occasion to showcase to the people and guests their local delicacies such as okpa, ichipe, ayaraya, utara okpa, ebieriebie and others.
The people thanked the deputy Governor who represented the Governor, Dr. Peter Mbah, and other dignitaries that came to witness this year's Olenyi Obollo Festival and pledged to make the next edition an even greater event.
