Creativity is the name of the game when we talk about uniquely advertising your product, brand or service. 40 year old Ojo Obaniyi, an artist from Nigerian city of Ibadan has his creative brain waves running all right as he has draped his Volkswagen pickup in natural raffia palms from inside as well as the outside. This he has done to advertise his raffia palm cane weaving services which truly stand out from the rest, at least the world is more aware about raffia palm now than they were before. With over twenty years of experience in weaving raffia palm cane this idea has truly captured his fellowmen by surprise as Ojo catches attention of everyone who glances at this four wheeled woven raffia palm cane of sorts.
His artistic touch is apparent from the meticulous weaving of raffia pam on the steering wheel, dashboard, seats, the door panels and even the wheel covers.
Ojo Obaniyi exclaimed his motivation behind this project by saying:
I wanted to prove a point that it is not only the educated elite that can make positive changes in society. We, the artisans also have talents to effect a change and make a positive impact in the society. That is why I decided that I too must do something that will make people to recognize me and know me across the whole world and by extension prove to the world that African and indeed the entire Black Race have very talented people.
