for upcoming talent and it's also an opportunity for her to help one charitable
organisation/ agents of change every month. This month, she's creating
awareness for Posh 9ja Youth initiative which will give Nigerian youths the
opportunity to learn a trade at no cost. The event started off with a dance
performance by a dance group called Charachoros, they are University of Lagos
students then comedy by SLK and Oliver.
Since part of the aim of BOBW is to create a platform for
upcoming artists and fashion designers to showcase their talent, the artists
that performed include Young Page, Multeen, Cryptic Kidz, ENT family, Rasheed
CMC, Seun Sticks, Jay Glow, 8-One and Elawtics. CMC Artist, Tony Torch and

couture and Taibat Bello of classietabbie's creations where they showcased
unique ankara accessories, diaries, Ipad covers, shoes, bags etc all made by the
use of our African fabrics. Channels Tv was there to cover the event and
Ariyike granted them an exclusive interview where she spoke extensively about
the vision behind BOBW where she expressed that BOBW is not a celebrity event,
it's an event for upcoming talent. It is her own way of giving back to the
society because most people don't care about upcoming talent. The event was
hosted by Ariyike Akinbobola and MC Prince.
