Thousands of young and old descendants of formerly enslaved people don elaborate costumes to bring the rhythm, vibrancy and colours of Brazil's Rio Carnival to the streets of Lagos in Nigeria.
The Fanti Festival, albeit on a smaller scale than that of its Brazilian model, helps to keep their heritage alive and celebrate the city's Afro-Brazilian history. IMAGES AND SOUNDBITES
