Nigeria got the best PR money can’t buy on Tuesday as American singer, producer and model, Ciara, and her dancers stormed Dolphin Estate in Lagos.
The 30-year-old shared a half-dozen Instagram videos showing off her latest moves as she learned the local dances with stunned residents watching.
With Nigerian dance queen, Kaffy, also in the pack, Ciara danced to Tekno’s ‘Duro’ and Iyanya’s ‘Kukere’.
The singer has been in the West African country to perform at Darey’s Love Like a Movie, but has spent much of her time visiting schools and hanging out with students and locals.
In the clips the scantily clad stunner appears to be wearing little other than her bra, panties and a very revealing robe.
Surrounded by five other similarly dressed beauties, the six break into a perfectly choreographed routine to the vibrant African beat.
One by one they break off and have a little solo session in the middle, right there in the middle of the street.
“UNREAL!!” Ciara captioned one of the vids. “#Dancing, Vibing, and Learning #Nigerian Dance In The Streets Of #Lagos! #DolphinEstates.
“I Couldn’t Leave Without Doing This! The Soul, The Culture, The Passion Here Is Unreal!! Thank You For Opening Up Your Neighborhood To Me and My Dancers and Letting Us Feel Your soul!”
In another video she thanked the choreographers, the dancers, and the costume designers who managed to create the “authentic Nigerian dresses in a matter of five hours”.
“It’s so cool how we put this together with very little time. God Is so Good!! THANK YOU!!” she added, sounding as excited in her captions as she looked in the videos.
“Wind Dem Hips, Drop It Low… Aye.. #Duro,” she wrote in one, and in another added: “Watching These Girls Dance Give Me Chills! It’s Not Just A Dance. It’s A Feeling. Wow! #Nigeria”.
Ciara visited a school in Lagos on Monday wearing the local adire made into buba and iro.
She filmed her arrival in Lagos on Friday, February 27 and has had nothing but positive things to say about Nigeri, a a country often derided by foreigners.
Watching These Girls Dance Give Me Chills! It’s Not Just A Dance. It’s A Feeling. Wow! #Nigeria
