Like I will always say concerning this series from 
So here is my entry today;
MY YOUTH CORP EXPERIENCE…… showing cultural diversity.
CULTURAL NIGHT AT NYSC CAMP, OBUBRA in August, 2006
CULTURAL NIGHT AT NYSC CAMP, OBUBRA in August, 2006
It was during the platoons cultural dance competition on camp, and it was also an opportunity for me to be picked among those that will form NYSC cultural troupe. Since a lot of Youth Corp members wanted to be posted to the State capital, we have been told by a friend that one the easiest way to achieve that goal was to perform very well at the cultural night competition because the Director in charge of the State troupe will be coming around to pick the good ones to join the other batch that came before us at the State Capital.
So I was so tensed that day because I wanted to make sure that I put all my best so that I would be picked. Luckily for me I was picked, and I later became the Artistic director for that set. It was such a wonderful experience for me.
Before one of our performance @ the State Cultural Center, Calabar
I really enjoined every bit of my stay in Calabar, and I will always cherish that moment for as long as I live. I also remember I was the only Youth Corp member that can play the talking drum (called GANGAN) in the whole of Cross River as at that time. So, you will always see me at so many Yoruba speaking Churches especially RCCG and other functions. I really made a lot of friends during this period.
During Yoruba Day Festival (I am the guy from the right)
I remember playing at the Yoruba day festival that year and it was such a fun doing it. I became so popular to a very good extent. Sometimes, people that I don’t know will just greets me along the way, and I will begin to wonder where I actually knew them from. Calabar is a place I would love to visit again and if possible live there. So, that is the story behind my #throwback pictures. I hope you love it?
