Tim Godfrey returns with Ewuro

Multiple award-winning music artist, Tim Godfrey, is set to present the second edition of his hit musical play, Ewuro, which is about the struggles of women in Nigeria.

Ewuro is the Yoruba word for the popular bitter leaf (vernonia amygdalina).

The play, which leads a movement that exists to address discrimination and violence against women, is centered around the abuse women in Nigeria face on a daily basis from rape, to battery, molestation and widow’s funeral rites.

“Following last year’s edition, we’ve decided to make this edition even bigger,” says Godfrey, who is executive producer of the play. “Audiences last year had a good laugh as the play went on, but more than that, they shed tears at stories that are popular, but which we have not really properly engaged as a nation.”

The play is powered by Republic of Xtreme in partnership with Swift Think Limited and the Lagos State Government.

Performing at this year’s edition are Waje, Yaw, Tim Godfrey, Lepacious Bose, Segun Obe, Chinonso Young, Nedu, Micheal Ejoor, Gbolabo Gibbs, Gloria Young, Isaac Geralds, Amaka Iruobe, Chioma, and Xtreme.
