Area view of residents of Ijede and other fun seekers celebrating the Easter Sunday at the newly created Odoro beach.
Youths in Ijede, on Easter Sunday (yesterday), gave residents of the ancient town and visitors a treat that they would not forget in a hurry as they organised a beach party not at just any location but at the site of a state – recognized historical site, Odoro river.
Old and young, traditional and community leaders, community and political activists as well as visitors and tourists alike trooped to the beach which sprung to life within three weeks after years of abandonment.
