EGSOSA Old Boys Donate notebook to Ekiugbo Grammar School Students

There was joy in the faces of the Principal, Staff and Students of Ekiugbo Grammar School recently when Old Students Association (EGSOSA) led by its Acting President Comrade Ibebe Rufus Akpobome went to the school to donate over four hundred customized notebooks to students that excelled academically in the last examination (first term).
The donation of the notebooks which was in line with the Association’s vision of developing Ekiugbo Grammar School took place during the morning devotion of the school. The notebooks were shared to the Senior Prefect, Head girl and ninety (90) other students that excelled academically in the thirty (30) classes that made up the school that was founded in 1980.
In his address, Comrade Akpobome stated that, they (Ekiugbo Grammar School Old Students Association) are donating the notebooks to students that excelled in the just concluded examination in fulfillment of the promise they made on the 12th of December, 2014 (while presenting a bell to the school).
His words, “we are here to fulfill the promise that we made to you before your last examination. We said then that “we are going to present notebooks to students that excel in the forth coming examination”.
We are here today to fulfill that promise because we are noble personalities that have been trained by this great school to always keep our promise”.
The Principal of the school Mr. Mtthew Iriemete thanked the Association for the kind gesture. He described the project as a laudable project that has touched the lives of the students. He tasked the body to remain united in other to be able to do more projects for the school.
Speaking on behalf of the students, the Senior Prefect of the school, Master Obakpororo Morrison thanked the body for the donation of the notebooks to him and other students. He said that the notebooks would no doubt go along way in helping them to do well academically. He added that, they are encouraged to do more because they are now aware that there is an Old Student Association in the School that is working to ensure that they are adequately rewarded for their hard work.
