Waje, Elvina Ibru and Ufuoma McDermott Performs at MTN Foundation

The MTN Foundation has remained consistent in its drive towards promoting the meaningful artistic works of Nigerian creators in the theatre industry. Its recent collaboration with seasoned producer, Gbenga Yusuf, brought a reenactment of Flower, the Musical to the Glover Memorial Hall stage.

The show featured some of Nigeria’s most celebrated musical and acting talents including Waje, Elvina Ibru and Ufuoma McDermott who delivered brilliant musical and dance numbers, while telling the stories of the characters.

Flower, which is a musical monologue, tells the story of six women — a faithful wife, an accused murderer, a corporate leader, a religious hopeful, a trophy wife and a sex worker, who navigate complex issues relating to their existence in a modern Nigerian society, while promoting the emancipation of discriminated women.

Speaking about his experience working on the project, the director Gbenga Yusuf said, “This is the second time we are bringing Flower the Musical on stage. The experience was very good and encouraging. There were a few difficulties at some point. However, it was expected. We appreciate the immense support we got from everyone — the actors, the cast, the crew, the institutions and corporate organizations like MTN.”
