Who says Valentine’s Day is only for the lovey-dovey couples? This February, let’s shake things up a bit.

‘Galentine’s Day,’ the 13th of February is all about celebrating the love you have for your girl squad.


Forget the red roses and heart-shaped chocolates; Galentine’s is about toasting to friendship, empowerment, and all things fabulously female.

So, whether you’re single and ready to mingle, or just fancy a break from the traditional Valentine’s script, here’s your ultimate guide to making your Galentine’s Day in Nigeria as fun and memorable as a Nollywood blockbuster.

Who doesn’t love a bit of pampering? Gather your girls for a DIY spa day. Make homemade face masks using natural ingredients like honey and aloe vera, do each other’s nails, and just relax. It’s a fabulous way to unwind and bond.

Queue up some classic Nollywood movies or the latest series everyone’s been talking about. Grab some popcorn, dodo (fried plantain), comfy pyjamas, and perhaps a glass of wine, and you’ve got yourself a perfect ‘Galentine’s’ night.

Who needs a Valentine when you’ve got your girls? Organise a gift exchange. It could be something homemade, something funny, or even something inspirational – just a little something to show you care.

Get together and whip up a feast. Each friend can be responsible for a dish. It’s a fun way to bond and enjoy some delicious homemade food. Plus, it’s a great excuse to try out that new recipe!

For the more adventurous squads, how about a day trip? Hiking, a beach trip, or even a visit to a nearby tourist attraction can make for an exciting and memorable ‘Galentine’s’ day.

So, this February 13th, let’s redefine Valentine. It’s a day to celebrate love in all forms, and what better way to do it than with the incredible women in your life?
