Yaba Relief Society Choir


Our Stake Relief Society put on a Women's Conference last Saturday. The Yaba Ward Relief Society Choir came early and sang some prelude hymns, performed a special musical number and then also sang some postlude hymns. Nigerians love to sing and most do it quite well. They also love to dress up and have matching outfits for special occasions. They all used the same fabric, except the sister in yellow. The sister with the white top had it all trimmed with the same print to match her skirt. I've seen other women walking in small groups all dressed up alike a few times. It's kind of cute, but somehow I don't see this as a coming trend in the U.S.

I recorded a very short clip during the prelude singing. It seemed a little inappropriate to record them without asking, but they were happy to pose for the "snap" (photo) afterwards.
