Amina Mohammed steals the show at Lagos event with D'banj
The standout moment came when UN Deputy Secretary-General Amina Mohammed stepped onto the stage alongside some of her colleagues during D'banj's performance.
Dressed in traditional attire and a scarf, Mohammed threw herself into the celebration, matching the festive energy with lively Afrofusion dance moves. Her outfit was hardly a deterrent.
The stage quickly transformed into a burst of colour as several other women in vibrant traditional dress joined in, turning the performance into something closer to a communal celebration than a concert set.
D'banj, dressed in a traditional shirt and matching trousers, serenaded the group before joining them on the dancefloor himself.
The moment captured both the cultural warmth of the occasion and D'banj's rare ability to bridge entertainment and diplomacy.
