The entire management and students of Universal Schools on Saturday, 19th November, 2016 marked her Cultural Day Celebration with chains of spectacular cultural expositions. The event was about commemorating our culture and other cultures beyond our borders and beyond our continent.
The cultural fiesta was very remarkable with the students beaming in their colourful native attires that showcased cultures of Igbo, Housa, Yoruba and other tribes. With these colourful attires and demonstrations from various tribes in Nigeria, Universal Schools Students promoted virtues of a united Nigeria with divers cultures. On display were several stands depicting the culture of the various ethnic groups, highlighting their food, custom and tradition.
Speeches were also made on the objectives and importance of cultural day celebration. The aim is to promote unity among-st students and to preserve Nigerian cultures against the rampaging western culture. Parents were urged to teach their children their mother tongues as it always promotes morality and builds an enviable Nigeria where everyone is proud of his or her culture.
Indeed the event was commendable. Parents and well-wishers were highly excited and impressed by the students performances and suggested that cultural day celebration should come up regularly.
