For five days, Calabar converged at the University of Calabar, Cross River, for the Pulse Campus Invasion. It was five days out of the ordinary hustle and bustle of school activities and MTN Nigeria fired on all cylinders to make it a superlative experience for all.
From Monday, 1st October to Friday, 5th October 2018, the whole school was buzzing about the many activities at the Retail Village, where exciting activities ruled the day – from life-size table games, to dancing competitions, etc.
The student body had been gisting about the ‘Celebrity Surprise’ visit that was going to take place at an undisclosed hostel on campus. Students were encouraged to vote for the hostel of their pick and since no one knew who was coming the excitement that took over the school was infectious.
On Wednesday evening, students poured in from around the Campus to the Malabor Girls hostel in UNICAL to be thrilled and the Pulse Invasion did not miss a beat. The DJ kept the students jumping on their feet. Comedy took its turn when the MC switched to his funny side and had the students in stitches. Soon whispers swept through the audience – some people had spotted someone that resembled DMW signee Mayorkun. Screams of excitement later confirmed the whispers – the Tear Rubber singer, had landed on the campus and was headed for the field near the Malabor Hostel.
An energized Mayorkun stormed the stage and wowed the ecstatic audience who sang every line to his songs. He was ready for Calabar and Calabar was excited for him. When the introductory tune for Tear Rubber filtered through the speakers, the screams of the audience hit a crescendo!
