Child saxophonist Oreofe Balogun, better known as Oreofe Sax, has arrived in Switzerland for the annual general meeting (AGM) of the Nigerians in Diaspora Organisation (NIDO) Europe.
Oreofe sax, 11, is the guest artist at the AGM and business summit scheduled to be held in Zurich, Switzerland from November 9 to 13, 2023.
