Today marks a significant moment in the calendar of Akwa Ibom's cultural celebrations. On Tuesday, 23rd December 2025, Obot Akara Local Government Area steps into the spotlight at the Christmas Unplugged 3.0 festival. Under the leadership of Rt. Hon. Simon Dominic Akpan, this day is a formal and heartfelt invitation to the general public, stakeholders, indigenes, and all friends of Obot Akara to witness a historic showcase of their rich culture, tradition, and heritage.
The event, starting at 12:00 PM prompt at the Christmas Village on Udo Udoma Avenue in Uyo, is meticulously designed to be more than a performance. It is a deliberate presentation of identity. In a world where local traditions can be overshadowed, Obot Akara Day stands as a powerful assertion of self-knowledge and communal pride. It offers a platform to display the unique customs, arts, and social values that have defined the Obot Akara people through generations. This celebration is an open door to understanding the depth of a community's spirit, making it an essential experience for cultural enthusiasts, historians, and every Akwa Ibom son and daughter.
Attending today is an act of participating in living history. It is a chance to see how a community interprets its past to inform its present and future. The call to "come and be part of history" is genuine; you are not just an observer but a witness to a cultural milestone. As Obot Akara celebrates its identity and shared future, your presence adds to the collective memory of this day. We urge everyone to heed this invitation and join in celebrating the enduring and vibrant heritage of the Obot Akara people.
