Reloaded: Calabar International Carnival, Bum and Bobby Flaunted: The 2012 edition of one of Africa’s biggest street carnivals, the Calabar Carnival, lived up to expectations as it attracted more foreign tourists who visited Calabar for the carnival.
Calabar Carnival is gradually matching up to the standard big carnivals like the Nottingham Carnival in the UK and the Rio Carnival in Brazil have set.
Even with absence of the ailing governor of the state, Liyel Imoke, Calabar Carnival didn’t fail to hold as the atmosphere around the streets of Calabar was lively. Top Africa’s pay-TV provider, DSTV did a live broadcast of the event. Both local and international media had their reporters covering the carnival.
Brazilian Sampa performed on the stage right before the performance of TRINADAD AND TOBAGO who used drums and acoustics to play many local tunes.
2012 CALABAR INTERNATIONA CARNIVAL is great fun filled event that truly worths all the troubles and roads closed to allow the processions of the entertainers. The carnival was started by Donald Duke, governor of the state between 1999-2007.
