Akwa Ibom state was created out of
Cross River State on 23rd September, 1987. In lieu of this, Akwa Ibom State Students' Association of Ghana (AKSSAG) is holding a street cultural carnival.
Akwa Ibom State Student's Association of Ghana (AKSSAG) constitutes students from Akwa Ibom state in Ghana and is an umbrella for them.
This association is legally registered and recognized by National Association of Nigerian Students (NANS), Nigerian High Commission, Akwa-cross Association and other students' bodies.
AKSSAG cuts across all spheres of ethnic groups in Akwa Ibom state. AKSSAG has successfully carved a niche for itself among students' bodies in Ghana and it has the potential of affecting positively all Akwa Ibomites schooling in Ghana.
Also, AKSSAG hopes to remain undaunted in achieving feats such as scholarships and protection for its members.
This maiden event is slated for 23rd September, 2015. A day when Akwa Ibomites once again, celebrate the birth of their motherland, the Land of Promise, Akwa Ibom state.
This carnival promises to be a five-star event. Nigerians from other tribes and people from other Nationalities in Ghana can participate. No matter your name or origin, it will be an explosion of creative energy, boisterous dance, pounding music and flamboyant costumes that combine into one heaving, sweaty orgy of color and sound. It will have it's own flavour.
Highlights of the event include:
Nigerian cultural dance,
Free drinks and food,
Parade through major Accra streets,
Music, and
An after party at 7th Heaven Club.
You need to be there in order to get the complete picture, because your friend who left you behind, will not be able to give you the full gist.
You cannot afford to miss this super-packed event. You can fully expect to be swept up in the revelry of it all. Costumes cost only 20ghc.
