Back in my primary school days, during Bible Knowledge (BK) and Social Studies, I was taught of Church of Scotland Mission in Lagos & it was abbreviated as CMS . That's the CMS you're talking about & i think it was later changed, can't remember.
I miss primary school days where we were taught stories of Sudan Interior Mission, Idriss Aloma & Idris Katakambi during Social Studies & BK
