December in Nigeria is a time of celebration, reflection, and vibrant entertainment as families and friends reunite to unwind after a long year. The festive season, marked by a flurry of concerts, plays, fashion shows, and street carnivals, has become an essential part of the cultural landscape.
To elevate this annual tradition, FirstBank, through its First@arts initiative, has once again launched its highly anticipated DecemberIssaVybe campaign. This initiative has, since 2018, offered fully sponsored access to premium concerts, festivals, and shows, bringing together Nigerians and international audiences to create unforgettable memories.
Kicking off the 2024 campaign, FirstBank sponsored Kenny Blaq’s Reckless Musicomedy Festival on Saturday, December 13, at Lagos’ Onikan Stadium. The event, a fusion of music and comedy, offered an evening of laughter, music, and dynamic performances from popular entertainers, including DJ Neptune, Aproko, MC Monica, and OvyGodwin. Emerging talents also took center stage, receiving rousing applause from an enthusiastic audience.
Headlining the night, Kehinde Otolorin, popularly known as Kenny Blaq, captivated fans with a signature mix of music, dance, and comedy. Speaking about the festival’s theme, he explained, “Music and comedy have always been intertwined for me. This event highlights both while celebrating boldness, creativity, and authenticity.”
FirstBank engaged attendees with interactive activities at its vibrant festival booth, featuring trivia games, keepsakes, and photo opportunities. This reflects the bank’s commitment to providing Nigerians with a “December to Remember.”
Olayinka Ijabiyi, Acting Group Head of Marketing & Corporate Communications at FirstBank, reinforced the bank’s dedication to fostering homecoming experiences through the DecemberIssaVybe campaign. He noted, “We are creating unforgettable moments for weddings, reunions, and festivities, ensuring Nigerians enjoy a vibrant and thrilling December.”
For over 130 years, FirstBank has remained a trusted supporter of Nigeria’s arts and entertainment scene, empowering individuals and communities to celebrate life despite economic challenges. The DecemberIssaVybe campaign continues this legacy by granting over 500 VIP tickets to premium events valued between N15,000 and N50,000, allowing customers to indulge in world-class entertainment across Lagos.
Nigerians eager to join the festivities can follow FirstBank on social media—Facebook (First Bank of Nigeria Limited), Instagram (@firstbanknigeria), and Twitter (@firstbankngr)—for updates on ticket giveaways and events.
With DecemberIssaVybe 2024, FirstBank once again proves its commitment to enriching lives, inspiring creativity, and delivering unforgettable holiday experiences.
