NUNSA week recap

The 2017 edition of the NUNSA week was one that blew the mind of everyone away. From the publicity to the Opening ceremony, down to the medical outreach and crowned with the most talked about dinner ceremony were all hits back to back. Let me not forget to had the spice of the week such as Project Sing and the Mr. & Miss NUNSA contest


A QUICK RECAP.
The week started with a massive publicity when NUNSites came out in their numbers to shake the entire University community. It was a fun filled atmosphere as talents were displayed in varying forms. In fact, it was so interesting such that people outside the department joined in the jamboree. As part of side attractions, recharge cards were given out and the programs of the week was spelt of to people.
The opening Ceremony was the first of its kind. It started at about 11am with the opening prayer which was taken by Lady Evangelist Egberongbe Adebisi. Up next was the recitation of the anthems(national,school,Nursing) taken by the NUNSA choir. The occasion was graced by the high and mighty in the society such as the Chaiman of the Ado-Odo Ota local government Engr Saheed Alagbe, and the keynote speaker Barrister Olaluwoye Peter, the founder of the Foreign links campus and senatorial aspirant Dr. Fola Akinosun, the newest Professor in Nursing, Prof. Omolola Irinoye, the Head of department Dr. Olufemi Ayandiran.
The opening ceremony was an intriguing one as both speakers gave  thought provoking lectures on their topics. The MC also thrilled the audience with jokes and his interactive question and answer sessions. The high point of the event was the launching of the maiden edition of the NUNSA magazine by both guests and some notable NUNSites. The atmosphere went agog as everyone followed with keen interest. The last session of the day was the Speech contest between the Obafemi Awolowo University(host), the Osun state university, and the University of Ibadan. They all tackled the topic and the winner was eventually announced. University of Ibadan came first, Obafemi Awolowo University(host) was the first runnerup and Osun state university was the second runner up. Certificates of participation was presented to all representatives from each school and awards was presented to them. The opening ceremony ended with a closing prayer. Food was also made available to every NUNSite present.


The day 2 was for Project Sing. The 8 contestants performed the songs they were given and at the end of the whole show, 3 contestants were eventually put on probation. They were contestant 5 OBADARE, contestant 6 BLESSING and Contestant 7 BUSAYO.

Day 3 was a say to touch lives and be a blessing to the community. The health outreach station was at the cradle of the Yoruba race, the Ooni’s palace. There, BMI, Malaria testing, blood pressure and health counseling were being done for free. It was one day Ile-Ife will always remember

Day 4 was a day of maximum jamboree as fun fare was taken to the next level. The ancient Erin-Ijesha water falls was visited. The adventure is still fresh in our memories as we went to the topmost, the 5th floor. It was just an exciting moment seeing everyone in their various ‘outta  school mood’ and catching the fun big time.

Day 5 which was the grand finale and the most talked about was in two phases. The football match and the dinner. Let me start with the football match. The match was between the OAUTH SON vs NUNSA_OAU both male and female categories respectively. The female team of the NUNSA_OAU team defeated their SON counterpart with a goal to nil while the male team of the OAUTH SON managed to defeat the indomitable NUNSA_OAU male team 4 goals to nil.
The dinner was lit, I mean, it was one in town. It started with the red carpet. You need to see the beautiful and handsome faces that graced the occasion, all in the dopest suit and gorgeous dinner wears. The master of ceremony, Don Sonorous was the killer. He was just in total control of the occasion the way he does it best. The Grand finale performances also thrilled everyone, also, the Mr. & Miss NUNSA contest was chipped in.
Alas, Irekponor Theodora emerged as the project sing winner with a prize of #10,000. The 1st runner up was Mbah Uchechuckwu and the 2nd runner up was Osuporu Ifeoluwa.
Esan Raphael and Bolatito Babatope were crowned Mr. and Miss NUNSA respectively. Music,food, and fun were in abundance. The dinner ended with the vote of thanks by the social director, Kolapo Adeola. Special guest were ex-presidents Akintunde Adeyemo and Omo-Imafidon graced the occasion.



TRUST ME, every moment was one to be remembered.
