MEET & GREET

There is nothing quite like a reconnection… Particularly one which spans decades.

‘No ordinary Meet-up.

There’s nothing quite like that first hug, pure genuine lit up joy in the eyes, ‘beaming when beholding another or many whom you’ve not met in the flesh since prepubescent years…

There’s nothing quite like a good old FGCE Global Reunion Meet & Greet: An event centered around reconnections with each other and with our roots.

Aptly Themed – O42 Las Las ??, our Meet & Greet event will feature poolside hospitality, breezy and tropical cabana style.

‘Mouthwatering local cuisine, the release of 50 Golden Lanterns launching our Anniversary,  entertainment from a Master Spinner, our very own Dj Xtacee(!) and for one-night-only, a performance by the famous Udoka Cultural Troupe!  

Venue: Hotel Sunshine Enugu
Dress code: Ethnic on Blue Denim

Bring out your Ankara, your Kente… Dig up the Tye & Dyes or Raffia séf ?? and team with blue denim ?????? in any combination.

Let’s make it a night to remember.
