Shuga
For those who know about the social scene in Lagos, the brand, Shuga Band, led by Akin Tofowomo, the man popularly called Shuga is not strange. In the last couple of days he has been super busy crisscrossing Nigeria from Lagos State to Cross Rivers dishing out tunes after tunes.
For those who don’t know, Shuga lives with disability. He suffered polio at age 5, and since then, he has been walking with prosthesis with aid of walking stick. That Shuga rose from disability of polio to become leader of Nigeria’s number one band is a testimony to the fact that with determination and necessary encouragement, anybody can become somebody.
Shuga Limb Foundation hosted children with disabilities to celebrate this year’s Children’s day. This year marks the fourth year the foundation has been hosting children living with disabilities to a day of laughter, fun and merriment.
The Shuga Limb Foundation got tremendous support from sponsors such as The Nigerian Britain Association, Epicentre Events, Association of Band Owners of Nigeria (ABON), Mallas Catering, Saheeto Smallchops, Astoria caterers, Blue World Drinks, ICampus, Bellanaija, Soundpro, Tent Event, Promasidor, Lekki British Junior School, Pepsi, Real Dreams Media, Play Barn, Irede Foundation and DJ B-Best who made the event a memorable one for the children.
