What the reason behind this talent hunt? In response to this question, Dipor Exzie, the media platform head was quoted, 'We have been preparing for this over the years and waiting for the right moment to execute the project. We don't want to come up with a poorly organized contest as is noticed among many of the contests we see in the country lately. A.O.C is of a huge magnitude, A.O.C is purposeful and is here to stay. We will start on a very good note and keep getting better at it, we will not allow the standard to drop. We know we can not do this alone, looking at the size and the reach. We are therefore partnering with a lot of organizations. Partnership is key to put this at the fore front. Corporate bodies and individuals are welcomed to share in

this vision".

According to Paul Learner (Director of Paul Learner Events based in Kaduna), the North Central coordinator, "A.O.C Campus Talent Hunt is designed to discover the very best and take such person's talent to international standard and then exposure. If organizations are visiting campuses to recruit new staff, we see no reason why stakeholders in the entertaining industry should not do so and even go the extra mile. This is a clarion call to stakeholders of various industries to take good advantage of the qualities of found in these wonderful youths. The higher institutions are where you get youths

with vibrance, high morale and a strong enthusiasm to take good advantage of the new world they will be exposed to".
