GLO ILLUMINATES BANANA ISLAND YULETIDE SEASON CELEBRATION

The Banana Island community in Ikoyi, Lagos, came alive on Saturday night as Globacom, Nigeria's leading technology company, sponsored the community's Starlight Night to kick off the Yuletide season.

Organized by the Banana Island Property Owners and Residents Association Lagos (BIPORAL), the 2024 Starlight Night was an evening of celebration, reflection, and gratitude. The event featured electrifying performances by Art Afrique and SPAN, alongside a dazzling Christmas fireworks display.

BIPORAL described the event, now in its fifth year, as “an evening to usher in the Yuletide season with families and friends, as well as a day to reflect on how the year has been and be thankful for where we are under beautiful weather.”

Globacom’s sponsorship included the lighting of a grand Christmas tree and the installation of illuminated streetlight boxes across key locations in Banana Island. The event culminated in the lighting of these streetlight boxes, strategically placed throughout the island’s major streets.

According to Globacom, “Christmas is a time for unity, joy, and togetherness. As a company, we believe in contributing to the communities where we operate. This is our way of giving back and spreading joy and hope to our fellow Nigerians, especially as we prepare to enter the New Year.”

The Starlight Night brought together local residents, friends, community leaders, and corporate partners in a shared celebration of the season.

Globacom’s sponsorship has infused the Banana Island community with a festive spirit, underscoring the company’s commitment to spreading joy and fostering unity during the Yuletide season and beyond.
