At an event to herald the mega ceremony at the Millennium Park, Calabar, with the theme: “Season of Sweetness”, the governor said the theme is apt, stressing that after a tough season, the people would smile.

Otu said, “This particular theme came as a result of almost all the other themes which capture the carnival from inception.

“After COVID-19, there was a total breakdown and people were so disillusioned. After that, the carnival has been trying to pick up and never really picked up.

“Whether people like it or not, after a season of very tough situation, hunger and other things there will actually come a season where people are going to smile and fortunately this is that season and people are going to smile,” he said.
