Dr. Francis Ogege, Director, United Nations Educational Scientific and Cultural Organisation (UNESCO), Auchi Polytechnic, made the call at the maiden edition of UNESCO Cultural Festival in Auchi, Edo, on Monday.

The festival which had as its theme: “The Role of Culture as Tool for Fostering Peace, Social Inclusion and Social Cohesion”, was organized by the UNESCO-Nigeria TVE Project, Auchi Polytechnic.

According to Ogege, a culture is a veritable tool that can be used to build values of love, peace and tolerance among Nigerians.

“In this challenging time facing our peaceful-coexistence as a nation, traditional institutions should use culture to promote and sustain what bind us together.

“Our traditional rulers should reinforce culture tendencies that promote our unity in diversity,” he said.

The UNESCO director also said the rich and cultural heritage of the country was going into extinction due to western civilization.

He urged traditional institutions to use their rich cultural heritage in their domains for positive social re-orientation of citizens for national integration.

“Culture is a powerful tool that should be used deliberately and consciously for peacebuilding, and there is the need to stimulate the change by our traditional rulers,” he said.

Earlier, the Acting Rector of the institution, Al-Hassan Zakariaya, said the program became imperative to reawaken the cultural values and norms among students, staff, and the people of the community.

“Culture is a way of life of a particular people and we need to sustain our rich cultural heritage to showcase it outside the world,” he said.

The highpoint of the event was a display of the rich cultural heritage of the Binis (people from Benin City), Igbo cultural group, the Afemai cultural group, the popular acrobatic dance of Esan people and Yoruba cultural group, amongst others.

Aisha Achimugu’s Glamorous Rendezvous With Paris

Published

on

By

Paris has always had a way of making fashion feel less like clothing and more like theatre. And when the world’s style aristocracy gathered for the Spring/Summer 2027 season, Nigerian high flying businesswoman, Aisha Achimugu, arrived with the kind of polished glamour that commands attention without demanding it.
Against the timeless backdrop of the French capital, Achimugu stepped into the world of Paris Fashion Week in a look that married sophistication with modern femininity. Her ensemble was defined by a refined silhouette, impeccable tailoring and the kind of carefully considered styling in which every detail appeared deliberate. The proportions were elegant, the finish luxurious, while her accessories added just the right measure of sparkle and personality.
Her beauty look complemented rather than competed with the outfit. Immaculately styled hair, luminous makeup and a poised, confident bearing completed the picture, allowing the clothes to retain their quiet authority. It was a lesson in restraint: nothing appeared excessive, yet every element, from the jewellery to the finishing touches, contributed to the overall effect.
The real strength of Achimugu’s Paris appearance, however, was in the details. The interplay of texture and silhouette gave the look dimension, while the accessories provided those subtle flashes of glamour associated with the best society dressing. There was an understanding of proportion, balance and occasion, a recognition that at Paris Fashion Week, being noticed is not necessarily about wearing the loudest look in the room.
For Achimugu, fashion has never seemed like an afterthought. It is part of the persona, the jewellery, the sculpted silhouettes, the luxurious textures, the immaculate finishing and that unmistakable confidence of a woman comfortable in her own skin.
Her Paris appearance offered yet another glimpse into the glamorous lifestyle of the Felak Concept Group boss, whose public persona has over the years straddled business, philanthropy, high society and fashion.
In the city, amid the fashion houses and international style elite, Achimugu appeared more than as a spectator but as a Nigerian woman confidently occupying a global fashion space. Her look spoke in the sophisticated language of Parisian dressing, polished, assured and intentionally glamorous, while retaining the unmistakable confidence of a woman bringing her own sense of style to the occasion.
And as the lights of Paris dimmed on another fashionable season, her appearance left behind the unmistakable impression of a woman who understands that fashion, at its most powerful, is as much about presence as it is about clothes.
