Mindful meoweler tips

Great food awaits you

From sumptuous soups to delicious dishes, try traditional Nigerian food like egusi soup and jollof rice. Don't forget to enjoy some refreshing palm wine too.

Respect local customs

In Owerri, handshakes are important but not mandatory. Refrain from using your left paw to gesture, as it's considered rude. Dress modestly and remove your shoes before entering homes and mosques.

Get ready for the heat

Bring light, airy clothing and plenty of sunscreen. Owerri can get quite hot and humid, particularly in the summer. Stay hydrated by drinking lots of water and try out fresh coconut water for some local flavor.
