Terracares 4 naija Campaign unlocks music talents
It was an exciting moment in most parts of Lagos recently as Terracares4naija, the corporate social responsibility initiative of TGI Distri Limited aimed at feeding 10,000 Lagosians in several communities unlocked some budding music talents.
The feeding programme which is usually laced with different fun activities including singing and dancing competitions has inadvertently unearthed lots of raw talents waiting to be harnessed.
When the programme commenced on October 16, 2019 at Agege a Lagos suburb as part of the United Nations World Food Day, a young man waltzed through the crowd to the front, took the microphone and rapped so well in Yoruba language using the name of the brand Terra seasoning cube. So many people were astonished with his talents.
Inikoro du, another lag os suburb visited by the Terracares4naija team, lots of children under 10 and teenagers as well, showed their dancing and singing skills. Miss Doubratitiboh, a 15- year old student of Ipakodo Secondary School, Ikorodu beat others to the prize. It was same story at Makoko, in Yaba Local council of Lagos as youngsters defied the flooded streets and neighbourhoods to show their dancing and singing skills.
Speaking at the event, Mrs Nnenna Onyenacho, Media and Activations Manager, TGI Distri Limited said she is pleasantly surprised with the talent displayed by the youngsters in the communities visited.
“The essence of the Terracares4naija programme is to put smiles on the faces of thousands of Lagosians by giving them nutritious food and engaging them through music. I am happy that the communities appreciate whattg id is tri Limited is doing. the turn out of both young and old in the places visited has been impressive. Christmas is around the corner and Terracares4naija is already putting them in the mood”, Mrs Onyenacho said.
