Some 200 family and friends from across the globe were at the Canterbury Recreation complex on Arch Street to join Nigerian-born community leader Basirat Bashorun in celebrating her 50th birthday. An all-white dress affair, guests were treated to exotic African and global music and dance, plus an excellent cuisine of Nigerian and international food and drinks. Black Ottawa Scene was there to bring photos of this society bash to our readers.
