So we started out the journey from Port-Harcourt Choba to Rivers State Okirika ๐Ÿ˜‹๐Ÿ˜‹๐Ÿ˜‹๐Ÿ˜‹๐Ÿ˜‹

I caught some sites of Okirika though.

this is where the pipeline runs through, there's crude flowing through there right now

And then we got there, with phone directions from Sis IB we navigated our way to the venue (that is after we took an unexpected tour of the area, because @iamthemembrane took us the long way to the venue)

People of Okirika, no offense but the way you guys built y'all houses... There was no planning ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ, you will walk out is somebody's backyard and enter someone's parlour ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚.

Anyways this is us navigating our way through TOMBURI SAND FILLED or is it SOMBURI SAND FILLED?๐Ÿค”

You can see Membrane at the back talking with sis IB and getting the descriptions...... That took us on an unexpected tour.

So we met the burial celebration of life activities.

At first we met the traditional rites cultural people dancing to go lay the body to rest.

Then it was time to go, we greeted Sis IB and Sis Rachael Strike and their older sisters (they all look alike, and they are beautiful)
