Ayan De First Announces Global Cultural Tour Plans

Ayanwole Ayantola, also known as Ayan De First, a prominent cultural promoter in Europe, has announced a packed international performance schedule aimed at showcasing Nigeria's cultural heritage. His upcoming engagements include performances in Scotland, Paris on August 20, and the United States in September.

Ayan recently completed a six-week theatre residency in Sheffield, where he received positive feedback from attendees, including a professor. He emphasized the historical significance of the talking drum, likening it to ancient communication systems used in warfare.

Ayan called for support from Africans in the diaspora for the upcoming "African Cultural Celebration Night," which aims to unite various African communities. Looking ahead, he expressed his vision to expand his reach to America and Asia over the next two years, encouraging aspiring drummers to be original and hardworking.

Ayan remains committed to using culture as a means to unite Africans abroad and to tell the continent's story with pride.
