The Anaguta Ishokori Festival 2025 held at the Jos Polo Field was nothing short of breathtaking, as thousands gathered to witness a grand celebration of tradition, unity, and cultural heritage. The event, which took place on May 10, 2025, was a colorful showcase of the rich history and values of the Anaguta people, beautifully reflecting the cultural soul of Jos North.
From the rhythmic beats of traditional drums to the graceful steps of ancestral dances, the festival was a stunning spectacle. Dressed in vibrant native attire, performers told stories of bravery, harmony, and resilience, captivating the crowd with every movement. It was a vibrant expression of identity and pride that echoed across Plateau State.
Beyond the performances, the festival created a powerful platform for promoting peace and inclusivity. Different communities came together not just to watch, but to participate, reaffirming the message that diversity is not a weakness, but a strength. The sense of unity was palpable, as people from various backgrounds celebrated as one.
The highlight of the event was the presence and inspiring leadership of His Royal Majesty, the Ujah Anaguta, whose grace and commitment to cultural preservation stood tall. His support, alongside the tireless efforts of the organizing committee, ensured the festival was well-coordinated, peaceful, and rich in meaning.
Truly, the Anaguta Ishokori Festival was more than a cultural event—it was a movement of pride, peace, and people. It reminded everyone that heritage is not just to be remembered, but lived and celebrated. Jos North will be talking about this one for years to come.
