Nigerian artistes are not just entertainers, they are also ambassadors of the country. They take the message of the country beyond its borders and export its culture wherever they go. Little wonder Nigerian swags, slangs and much more are seen on the streets of other African countries, America, Asia and Europe.

The artistes are showing no signs of relenting. In fact, they are getting more innovative in the way they take the country’s culture to the other side.  Many are doing it by finding a way to blend western dress code with the African version. This is one reason why the African print fabrics, like Ankara, batik, adire among others are gaining more popularity.
