The Story...
Mama Obele

The Everyday people series is a nostalgic collection capturing random life moments of people in my life.
Here, little Amaka finally gets what she’s been asking for: to dress up like her Mama Nnukwu (big mama/Grandma). She is now Mama Obele (small mama)
She’s so proud of her colourful expertly tied head scarf and can’t stop admiring the many patterns on the wrapper flowing from her chest to her ankles.
