“This school has shaped and contributed greatly to who we are now but today, it is faced with many challenges and the Old students Association is here to offer our support.
“The year group of 2017 has taken it upon ourselves to contribute our quota towards the development of this school which has shaped the minds of many leaders in our country today.
“As such, making this presentation on the school’s Speech and Prize Giving Day is heartwarming and gives us a sense of fulfilment to positively impact these young ones who we were like some years back,” he said.
He also urged the students not to be restricted by the limited resources of the school but be purposeful and be great beneficiaries of the knowledge they are acquiring.
“Through the training, we had from this school, some of us are doing very well by God’s grace and we will continue to support our alma mater so that the young ones will also grow to become important products of our society,” he added.
