What do you have to say about indecent dressing by our young girls of today in the name of fashion
Miss WuraOla GOLD: Well, our world of fashion today has takrn a new shape, girls now go on streets half naked even on campus. Most of them were not brought up that way or trained to dress that way from home, but due to peer groups, wrong association, their dress sense changed. And I must say indecent dressing is an effect of western civilization. My words of advice to them is lets try our best as ladies to cover the sensitive part of our body properly before stepping out of our rooms, because the way we dress determines the way we are addressed.

What are your views about the political crisis and boko haram issues in Nigeria?
Miss WuraOla GOLD: Citizens should be senticized by NOA (National Orientation Agency) on electoral guidelines and the danger of electoral malpractices. Secondly, on boko haram issues in Nigeria, I believe terrorism (boko haram) is a global phenomenon i.e every country at a time must experience terrorism. Its how the country can it that matters. Therefore before the advent of boko haram in Nigeria, the act of terrorism has been in existence. A good example of this is the militancy in niger delta
