It was such a spectacle at the Ikeja
City Mall last Friday, when dozens of young people orchestrated a flash
mob with a ‘BreakFree’ message, urging shoppers to break free from
situations that limit them from actualizing their full potential.
The campaigners who wore shirts with the
inscription: #BreakFree, held many people spellbound as shoppers stood
to watch in amazement.
There was dancing, singing, and some comic
display while the spectators, who were thoroughly entertained, took
photographs and recorded video clips with their mobile devices.
It remains unknown what the #BreakFree
campaign is all about, many who witnessed the show said they believed it
must be associated with something revolutionary, which they look
forward to.
“This is very inspirational. They are
motivating us to break free from things that hold us bound. So it’s a
good message. I just don’t know who is behind this and what they want to
achieve but they have entertained us and challenged us to break free.
I’m going to sit down and think deeply to identify the things I need to
break free from in order to live a life fulfilling life,” Deborah
Adetutu, who came to shop at the mall, said.
When asked, one of the campaigners,
Collins Abudu, said the #BreakFree campaign is aimed at empowering
Nigerians to live in freedom, having the power to make their choices in
life.
“This is about encouraging Nigerians to
live outside the box and explore the various opportunities that they
have in life.” he said.
The unique flashmob has since gone viral after it was published on social media.
