It was all shades of beauty on Saturday as the 2021 Batch B stream 2 corps members posted to Osun State held their carnival at the NYSC Permanent Orientation Camp Ede. The NYSC Osun State Coordinator, Mr Ayodele Adegoke noted that the essence of the carnival is to showcase the cultural uniqueness that we have. " We have a rich cultural identity as Nigerians. There is a need therefore to showcase it wherever we might find ourselves and be proud of who we are". Earlier, the Head of Man O' War, Mr Deji Aboge noted that the carnival helps people to set aside their differences and focus on what makes them one. "It is an opportunity to express love, and celebrate those that have imparted us. Through it, we demonstrate unity which is needed in the country". He therefore charged everyone to make such event memorable by putting their all into it. The sponsors of the carnival, Munch iT, represented by Mr Dayo Ajayi, the Marketing Manager SouthWest appreciated all the corps members for giving in their best to the success of all activities on camp and encouraged them to continue to engage themselves in ventures and activities that unites the nation and not divide her. The cultural display for the day had Platoon 7 displaying the rich culture of the Urhobos, Platoon 3 showcasing the Fulani culture, Platoon 6 displaying the Hausa culture, Platoon 10 showcasing the Igbo culture, Platoon 5 showing the Ibibio culture. Again, Platoon 2 displayed the Efik culture, Platoon 9 displayed the Osun Osogbo culture, platoon 4 showcased the Ondo culture, Platoon 1 displayed the Benin culture and platoon 8 displayed the Igede culture. The presentations were judged based on certain criteria. The panel of judges consisted of Mrs Abiona Adenike, Dr Ademola Ayoola and Mr Yusuf Abiodun who was the chief judge. The event witnessed special performances from the Orientation Broadcasting Service (OBS), Camp Clinic, Quarter Guard, and Servicom. After the interesting cultural displays by the various platoons, awards were presented in both dressing and cultural display. For the best dressed platoon, platoon 2, 6, and 10 came 3rd, 2nd and 1st respectively. For the cultural display, platoon 5 came first, platoon 2 came 2nd, and platoon 10 came 3rd.
