The promoter of popular culture, chief Oluyinka Nurudeen, recently shared a memorable experience of using traditional Yoruba attire for a white yacht party in Hollywood, California, with Tribune Saturday.
Despite the event's clothing code, Oluyinka decided to use an Agbada, Buba and Shokoto totally white with accounts, which turned out to be a showstopper.
The attire attracted the attention of the predominantly white crowd, which was impressed by the cultural meaning and the uniqueness of the attire. People started taking photos with him and exchanging visiting cards. The event organizer was so impressed that he invited Otunba to another show, offering him free admission as a show of appreciation.
This experience not only brought Otunba to the attention center, but also earned him recognition and awards in the United States. He advises people to embrace and promote their cultural heritage, highlighting the rewards involved in sharing the traditions of one with the world.
