When the idea of holding an annual international photography festival was conceived by the African Artists’ Foundation,AAF, it was clear at the official opening ceremony of the exhibition, that the organizers never envisaged a massive turn out of a fantastic crowd comprising virtually, individuals representing nations of the world such that it exposed the organizers as lacking in a proactive approach to events management, and the essence of art as a pivot for socio-cultural interactions among people.

Without a doubt, M-Net has indeed wrung out a winner with the All Star Edition of Big Brother Africa. The logic was simple: every Big Brother Africa fan had a season they considered the most exciting largely because of the housemates that brought the show to life.

ON October 1, the National Theatre came alive as a mammoth crowd made up of both young and old, students and pupils, suckling and lovers, who occupied every nook and cranny of its perimeter, overflowed the main road close to the entrance gate, forcing vehicles to park wherever there was space.
