Where is Jesus College, Otukpo, 1954?

Maybe it’s the popular ones then that are represented. St. Joseph’s College Vom that I attended was established in 1958.

The West are the luckiest in terms of education but they failed to make the country great.

Pelumisamuel:
No. 41

Up school.

GSS ILORIN NO18

Edo College
M.M Way Benin City
Edo State

The school for the traditional elites those days.

My alma mater

Confamento....GCU for life

Keep the ship sailing

Elzazzi:
Abeg which one Tinubu go

Bulabai town hall secondary school

mradonis:
No 1 for life
We don't play with the month of June


The school anthem I can never forget till I leave this earth 🌎

UP SCHOOL

Lives are in the making Here
Hearts are in the waking Here
Mighty undertaking Here
Up and On.

We are arming for the Fight
Pressing on with all our Might
Pluming wings for higher Flight
Up and On.

Chr: Up Boys, truest Flame
Lies in our endeavour
Play the game, keep the Flame
Burning brightly ever.


Likewise, the words of the school song are already ingrained in my blood. I can never forget them. I taught my children those words too, despite that they never attended the school. 1974/79 set

Whoever compiled this list deserves award.
My school accordingly listed with accurate date

And you had to quote the whole post, your comment would still be seen, without having to quote the long thread.

Woow!!! Those days AT CMS, Grammar School. Up school, up boys!!! Kudos to thé founders.

Kog45:

Holy Family College, Oku Abak ---- 1942 missing in the list

Kings college

Tolumiide:
Whoever compiled this list deserves award.
My school accordingly listed with accurate date

the person doesn't. My secondary school (St Paul Anglican Grammar School, Igarra, Edo state) was founded in 1938 and I can't find it here. This liat only mainly concentrated on South West. It has nothing to do with Nigeria.

Holy Child College, Obalende, Lagos 1945 is not on the list

Your list is not complete

ahmedio2017:
I rep GSS government secondary school ilorin

Same here bro.

Iagos:
Duke Town Secondary School, Calabar...... That's my school

Nice one same here (Labor est voluptas).

Elzazzi:
Abeg which one Tinubu go

E no dey there

I rep Loyola college Ibadan... 20000 set

The North has been educationally backward from time in memorial. Not even one in the core North

Looking at this list, I can confirm that The church is truly a blessing to Nigeria. Even now the Church is still leading the course in terms of Higher Institutions. I'm not trying to be religious but let's give credit to The Church.

This list shows the foundation of education in Nigeria.

Most of those schools educated people from all over Nigeria without prejudice to their origin.

Very true. At No. 36 on the list stands Aggrey Memorial College. Beyond being my school of tutelage, many a genius and men of iron passed through that school from various parts of this formerly great corntree
