Return of schools to missionaries yielding desired results in Ekiti ― Fayemi

Ekiti State Governor, Dr Kayode Fayemi, has said that the return of schools to their original owners by his administration has started yielding desired results by way of healthy competition among old students to make an impact in their schools.

Fayemi who stated this at the weekend at Christ’s School, Ado Ekiti during the commissioning of the renovated Archive/Museum building by the Class of 1967/71 in commemoration of the 50th year of their graduation from the School, called on old students to always give back to their alma mater in order to ensure continuity of development in the school.

While commending the set for the wonderful work they are doing to elevate the school, especially fixing a project that binds all students together, the Governor assured them that he would rally support for them to ensure that they complete all they set their minds to do for the school.

The governor said: “And now that we have returned the school back to its original owner, the way old students are really competing healthily to pull back to the school is something I find most remarkable and my set is also involved in the competition as we have tarred the two roads in the boys and girls sections and I think the set after us did the old sickbay and now you are doing this. If we all pull back little by little, we would not only rekindle what this place used to be, we would have a brand new school we would be proud to send our children back to.

“One thing binds us, it is the tradition that this school has, that is all we all are inbuild with, the tradition of excellence, the tradition of God-fearing and the tradition of discipline in everything that we did while we were here and that is why you have not forgotten your connection to Christ School.

“So, what you are doing is worthy of emulation, I am sure other sets will hear about it and they would find a way to put it back to the school. I mean we must consider the current principal of the school to be particularly lucky to be experiencing this rebirth, this renewal of Christ School as it used to be.”

Earlier, the Chairman, Planning Committee, Dr Charles Akinola, noted that the building was the heartbeat of Christ School as the archive was modelled in an effort to preserve, re-enact and showcase the rich history of the school.
