Where Culture
Dances Into The Future
SEKI KULTURE is the cultural entertainment powerhouse of Rivers State and the Niger Delta. We blend ancient African masquerade heritage with Disney-like storytelling to preserve our past and ignite our economy.
More Than Dance.
A Cultural Renaissance.
Seki Dance Drama, created by visionary Yibo Koko, is not just a performance; it is a collaborative rhythmic agreement of the Ijaw, Okrika, and Niger Delta people.
Inspired by the aquatic residence of the gods ("Owu Amapu-Ti"), we are evolving the traditional village square theatre into a global creative industry. Like Disney did for folklore, Seki Kulture does for African heritage—creating sustainable tourism, education, and entertainment products.
