An private dinner for African creatives in the diaspora was held by Mariam Timmer of "The Real Housewives of Lagos" in Hollywood, California, under the banner of "An Evening of Love for the MotherLand with Mariam Timmer."
The dinner brought together African talents including actress and singer Niyola, football player and "Basketball Wives" star Ogom "OG" Chijindu, travel blogger and brand influencer Jessica Nabongo from Uganda, Ugandan event host and TV presenter Kabs Haloha, and model Michelle Saahene with the aim of inspiring Africans in the diaspora to make an impact in their home countries.
It was a wonderful evening of innovation, inspiration, and patriotic fervor.
Chef Tolu Eros, one of Nigeria's most creative and brilliant chefs, presented them to a multi-course dining experience at his restaurant, Ilé, in Hollywood, California. The menu featured contemporary African cuisine.

AN EVENING OF LOVE FOR THE MOTHERLAND OF AFRICA WITH MARIAM TIMMER There is no country in the world with the diversity, confidence, talent, and black pride as Nigeria.
It is after all the giant of Africa and the most populous black nation on Earth. My passion for Nigeria, and Africa as a whole is to encourage Africans in the diaspora to make an impact back home. No matter how small it is. This has been a dream of mine to create more awareness of our route. It doesn't matter what you do. As a society, it is our responsibility to educate the upcoming generation, and it is my goal to bring together those that are willing to help. By using this medium, we had an amazing evening of African culture using food as the medium of expression with a multi-course dining experience showcasing African cuisine with a modern twist by the most talented and creative culinary export out of Lagos, Nigeria- our very own Chef Tolu Eros of ILÉ in Hollywood California. Bringing together all this amazing African talent was an amazing night of sharing creativity, ideas, and love for the motherland. Thank you to these amazing people for honoring my invitation and becoming part of my family. I look forward to more endeavors with you all. ❤️🥰🌍 Africa to the world 🌍
