Adebola Ade, member of the Council of the Elite Seven and Nigerian member of the House of Representatives, had come to join them on the bench and both Cory and Scarlett looked up at her as she took a seat, their eyes wide in disbelief at her words.
"Are you serious?!" Cory asked, truly astonished and Adebola nodded in affirmation.
We even have this tradition of showing up in a unique outfit everyone who can afford it has to wear to attend the party. It's called Ankara oku." She continued, watching as Scarlett nodded in agreement.
