Held before a robust audience, the event was moderated by former Minister of Education and convener of the popular #BringBackOurGirls movement, Dr. Oby Ezekwesili.
The symposium, in essence, reexamined the amalgamation of the Northern and Southern protectorates one hundred years ago, charting the journey and prospects for rediscovery of indigenous culture and glory.
Professor of Philosophy Sophie Oluwole said the historical activity of 1914, which "brought the people of Niger area together" was rather a profit-oriented fusion than an objective amalgamation of a people by the British colonialists. 
Felabration is an annual concert commemorating music philosopher, Fela Anikulapo Kuti, who spoke truth to power, fearlessly.
