Ok, if you saw the above photos, what would you think? Someone getting a "massage" Nigerian streetstyle, right? Actually, we took a short day trip this past weekend to Kaduna, a neighboring town. Behind the National Museum, people gather in the late afternoon to have a big dance off to Hausa music. Apparently the traditional musician didn't show, so I'm not sure if this was the equivalent of Nigerian interpretive dance. It was a cross between WWE wrestling linked with Indian Bollywood themes (forbidden love). Highly entertaining.
The comedian in the group came out and dressed in drag. And wow, they can dance. Listen to the Hausa music in the clip below.
There were some incredible sculptures as well behind the museum.
