Prom, the red carpet event for 2015 SSCE graduates is on.

| Beautiful Miss Oge Obed on prom night.There are mixed feelings on the appropriateness of Nigerian secondary schools allowing |
their graduates to attend proms. Parents's views are divided on this issue.Some parents are of the opinion that prom is a western culture which is of no benefit to our teenagers, rather it exposes them to early attention from the opposite sex with attendant consequences.
Other parents do not have any problems with proms.The later group of parents see prom as a 'rite of passage' for their beloved teenagers for which they can spend any amount.
This is what Mrs Tessy Agbai whose 16 year old daughter just graduated from one of the top secondary schools in Lagos.
" I believe that students who have completed 6 years educational journey deserve to be celebrated. Prom is nothing but a high school banquet where teenagers get their first grown up experience.It provides us parents the opportunity to celebrate the end of our children's childhood and beginning of their adult life. My precious daughter had the most amazing prom night and she will treasure that for life".

If the girls dress decently like these ones here, I have no problem with that.
