It was a moment of joy, dancing and thanksgiving on Sunday, as Akama Oghe indigenes resident in Abuja, Nigeria’s Federal Capital Territory (FCT), mark their yearly get-together.
The event began with a holy Mass celebrated by Rev. Fr. Emmanuel Obi of Church of Archangel, Gaduwa, Abuja Archdiocese, who in his homily, praised the unity that exists among the people of Akama Oghe community.
He reminded them that Christmas is a season of reconciliation and forgiveness.
“Reconcile with one another, that is the essence of Christmas,” Fr. Obi said, adding, “this gathering shows that there is unity among you.”
The cleric further enjoined them to forgive one “and avoid anything that will separate you from God.”
This year’s get-together began on Saturday with “Suya Night”, which dovetailed into the early hours of the morning.
It brought together sons and daughters of Akama Oghe Improvement Union (AOIU) with their families.
There was so much to eat and drink, while music rendition, including the popular Ikwo genreelectrified the occasion and fond memories.
