The Yorubas, via Baba Awolowo, embraced education very early.
Strangely , almost all Awolowo's policies were questioned by opposition.. they called it wastefull

Nigeria’s oldest secondary school, CMS Grammar School is celebrating 160 years of its founding in grand fashion and with multi-million Naira projects. To celebrate the landmark anniversary, the management, board of governors and Old Grammarian Society (OGS) of the school have kicked off a series of activities and programmes.

At a media briefing in Lagos days back, the President of the Old Grammarian Society, Mr Adedapo Fashanu, disclosed that as the first secondary institution in Nigeria, the history of education cannot be written in Nigeria without the school. “The history of secondary school education cannot be said without the mention of CMS Grammar School”, he said.

You mean ears, freedom of expression isn't necessarily an avenue to display folly. Why wake up with so much hate?

the only reason you know about southwest NURTW revenue collectors is because you shamelessly left your unproductive erosion ravaged shithole to come and hawk galla or work in a brothel....

Can we stop these childish tribalism?

If the whites/missionaries first landed in the east, the school would have been in the east. Stop all these chest beatings that aren't helping to improve University Admission or Getting a Job after Graduation. Is USD not same exchange rate in the South East as it is in the South West?

And to show how conflicted you are, you set a standard and go borrow a phrase from those you just bashed for not being up to par with you. #Seriously.
