A Pictorial Account Of The Nigeria Tech Community Christmas Party (CcHubBash) 2011

The Co-Creation Hub Christmas Party for the Nigerian Tech Community held on Friday 16th December 2011. It turned out to be an awesome time.

I don’t know about you, but 2011 has been fairly stressful for me, so when I heard “party”, all my adrenaline went into full gear. Here was an opportunity to unwind and have fun, and I wasn’t going to miss it for the world.

Below are some pictures that I believe captured the essence and drama of the night. There are many more pictures than these, and I have provided links to the full albums at the end of this article.

I have included my commentary, and I hope that you have some fun going through this brief pictorial account.

Our own Omonzua announcing the winner of the dance competition. Errr.... is that an admirer?

I suspect that we might be getting more phone calls than usual at Mobility Towers from now. Omon seemed to have more than her fair share of admirers. Trust me. However, if you quote me on this, I will deny it vehemently. Thank you.

I was selected to pop a bottle of champagne. Lawd knows I had no idea how to go about that. In the above pic, I was trying to coax Emeka into doing it. Thankfully, Bosun rescued me when the time came. Phew!

It needs also be said that Gbenga Sesan did all his dancing that night by mouth. We suspect that he did that to protect his future political career from embarrassment. Yes, Gbenga; call your lawyers.

And, yes; I’m just beefing that he had all the ladies’ attention and I didn’t.
