Owerri was aglow with fun recently as the Tiger Street Food Festival turned out to be a beehive of street food vendors and foodies. The event, sponsored by Nigerian Breweries’ Tiger beer was organised to attract the young, energetic and adventurous who are willing to ‘uncage’ their tastes and passion.

Accompanied by street and club anthems from the on-site DJs, the festival accentuated the beauty of the culture of the people of Owerri spelt out in the assortment of finger-licking delicacies at Cubana Lounge, New Owerri.

The scene was set to attract fun seekers who yearned for outdoor recreation while staying safe. Food vendors showcased their homegrown concepts and recipes in an atmosphere of camaraderie.

Graffiti artist, The Flying Bushman, with his eye-catching neon paintings and graffiti added glitz and glam to the already coloured event. Five Star Music rapper, Xbusta, also brought some magic to the festival with some freestyles and a medley of his rap songs. ‘Cash App’ singer, Bella Shmurda, also ‘uncaged’ his energy as he belted out his songs to the excited fans.
