Over the weekend, the Lagos state commissioner for tourism, Mrs. Toke Benson-Awoyinka, led other celebrities to the NBA All-Star weekend.

The NBA All-Star games brought together the who-is-who in the NBA, the legends, music industry executives, and politicians.

Also, as part of efforts to enhance the creative industry and tech community, Mrs. Benson-Awoyinka had a meeting with the Mayor of San Francisco, Daniel Lurie, and members of the San Francisco Film and Entertainment Commissions.

The All-Star Weekend was held on February 14-16, with the main event held at Chase Center, home of the Warriors. Other events were held across the San Francisco Bay Area, including Oakland Arena.
