She owns the Nike Okundaye gallery in Lekki, Lagos and had delivered seminars on the traditional Nigerian textiles to audiences in the United States and Europe for over 20 years. Not one given to parties or seen hobnobbing with celebrities, it came as a surprise to many when the famous artist started showing up on the Lagos social scene lately. Okundaye was sighted recently at a wedding in Lagos dressed in the aso ebi and had on her head, a big headgear. Known for her creative works which many bourgeois love to own, her appearance didn’t go unnoticed and many of the A-list guests made sure she had a good time at the party.
