Speaking to the audience at the event Mr Usamate said such cultural shows are very important to make people realize the need to preserve their culture and identity.
“The cultural show tonight will benefit all of us as we value our cultures and traditions alike and it is important that we hold them on top as they remind us of our cherished values”, said Mr Usamate.
He further said that the danger of losing our culture is inevitable if we do not continue to fertilize our culture into our lives and our families.
