The appointed day has arrived 07/04/2022, my children were ready in their new clothes in different tribes, with God's help I was able to provide all that they needed for the occasion, you know what is like when a child have that feeling of am in, yes it gives them and you the parent feel the Joy too.I spend NGN16,000 which was 90 steem to make them happy.
In this event it was 5 tribes that participated and they are as follows.

Each tribe explain their origin and their culture especially the type of food they like and how they welcome strangers, each tribe danced to grease the occasion, it was awesome, my joy was that parents did all their best to prepare their children and came to witness their performances, the proprietor of the school was so happy to see what this children and their teachers can do, I was able to video some of their performances so check out each tribe picture and performance.
Hausa tribe
This children danced and acted as if they are from Hausa tribe, it was really amazing.
Igbo tribe
I am from Igbo precisely Imo State so when they were called to come out, you know now Igbo song was played which moved me to dance with them, it was a happy moment, I was surprise to see this children that are not from Igbo tribe speaking my language.
Efik tribe
Efik is central language of Akwa Ibom State, it is easy to understand, it is the on used in Writing books so that it will be easy for you and me to understand.
Yoruba tribe
My Son was in Yoruba tribe, hé is the one that explained the origin of Yoruba and he joined in their dance too.

After the event
You would have laughed uncontrollable if you were there when we were about to go, relax let me gist you, my small boy who is 2 years and 8 months was very happy dancing and enjoying himself saw me coming he started crying because he knew is time to go, I tried to carry him, do you know what he did, he started dancing again as if he was not the one crying, I forced him to go and he cried until we reached house, I played some toy video for him to make him happy, you know children nah, is over.
that is how the cultural day went, it was successful.
Conclusion
I thank God for the provision he made for me to be able to buy things for my children for the cultural day, I would have felt bad just like them if I was unable to get those things for them. I am grateful to the school management for educating our children so well.
Best regards from @ijelady.

The school looks nice. I hope they teach well too. Meanwhile, it's Ibibio that's the central language in Akwa Ibom not Ibibio.
