Obituary: Niwoye Nupe Haj Aishatu Abdulmalik Wogbo

IMG_1834Late Niwoye Nupe Haj Aishatu Abdulmalik Wogbo, Emira from the royal Nupe house, Masaba. The entire Nupe community mourns the loss of a great woman, supporter of Islamic values, traditionalist, and keeper of KinNupe values.

Her official greeting, Ogbo, gives respect and recognition to royal position.  Ogbo: Alhaja gave her blessing to me and supported the making of  documentary, Bida Legacy, Bikini Glass. I am saddened that she will not share in the joy of seeing this documentary and knowing that this nearly forgotten cultural heritage is documented for the world to appreciate.
