Limerick gets ready to celebrate African diversity

DUTCH student Femke Van Der Kooij yesterday got into the swing of things for the upcoming Africa Day in Limerick.

She stepped out for a photo call at City Hall in traditional African dress.

Ms Van Der Kooij, who is a visiting student at the University of Limerick, said: “I got the dress and head wear from Nhono Tambidila from the Congo.”
