He further explained that the Carol was set for 15th November because the department will be starting their practical exams on Monday 18th November 2019 and general exams on 25th November 2019.
The event had a lot of outstanding performances like singing of Christmas songs, hymns, and orchestra by all the students of the department of music.
They also performed a Naija version of the popular song “we wish you a Merry Christmas”.
The Christmas carol was brought to a close by Dr. E.I Amiyu as he gave the closing remarks thanking all the guests that honoured their invitation and assuring the audience that next year’s Christmas carol will be bigger and better.
