Our Social Resposibilities
what we do
IFE IN MY CITY ART FESTIVAL
(LIMCAF) commenced in 2007 and
has recorded tremendous success.
Robert Oji’s desire to encourage
artistic creativity and awareness of
environmental issues led to the
Lfounding of the art festival. It
provides opportunity for young people, through
art, to make meaningful statements about their
environment. It also encourages and empowers
young artists throughout Nigeria by promoting
and commercializing their creative endeavours
on a national and international platform.
October 2016 marked the 10th anniversary of the
annual festival, and its success over the years is
testament to the vast investment Chief Oji and
Rocana Nigeria Limited has made.
The involvement of Rocana Nigeria Limited is part
of her social responsibility agenda to society and
culture. Life in My City Art Festival is an annual
gathering of artists and stakeholders of visual
arts in Nigeria, featuring exhibitions, symposia
and workshops. It is the single largest exhibition
of new works in Nigeria.
In its 8th year, the Competition is governed by
Chief Robert Orji, and organized by a registered
Board of Trustees with the support of the Alliance
Francaise Network in Nigeria, the Nigerian
Council of the Pan-African Circle of Artists and, as
mentioned above, ROCANA Nigeria Ltd.
