Just stumbled on this.
Looking through old emails for my school awards group. We were trying to determine when we started giving awards in school to the top 3 commercials students from the top 3 ex commercial students of the graduating class of 1996.
Thank you for giving me the opportunity to feature in your magazine.
Keep up the good work, and I hope I get to see a copy of the magazine once it is published.
I do not currently have a picture of me on my POP day, I will endeavour to get my hands on a copy, as soon as I do so, I will scan it and send it to you guys. In the meantime time, do find attached a personal picture. It was taken last year, and it’s hopefully still a reflection of what I look like!

PERSONAL CHALLENGES:
ONE UNFORGETABLE EXPERIENCE WHILE IN SCHOOL IN AFGCS: On the funny side, blue house girls having the audacity to take pictures in front of officers on the day we got shaved in the middle of SSCE! In full make up. But on the serious side, throwing our beret’s in the air on P.O.P day.
A MESSAGE FOR THE PEARL MMAGAZINE ON HER 10TH ANNIVERSARY OR FOR THE INSTITUTION:In secondary school, we were taught the sky was our limit. We were privileged to have been educated in one of the best schools in Nigeria (My personal opinion). Even though school was tough, we learnt a lot of valuable lessons on friendship, loyalty, working together as a team, humbleness, discipline, and perseverance. All these lessons have amounted to make each and every one of us what we are today. I owe my achievements and the person I am today first of all to God, to my parents for sending me to AFGMS/AFGCS, to the officers and civilian teachers who taught and supported us, to the sergeants who drilled us and to the cooks who fed us. I pray as we celebrate our 20 year anniversary we will not forget our roots and where we started from. We owe it to ourselves and the future sets to continue to support and appreciate our school in whatever way we can. The most significant decision we can make each day is our choice of an attitude. When our attitudes are right there’s no barrier too high, no valley too deep, no dream too extreme, no challenge too great for us to accomplish. Congratulations Pearl Magazine on your 10th year Anniversary and to our beloved school on its 20 year Anniversary!
Wow…..I had forgotten this write up……..it seems I wrote again in 2010. I will try and find it and see how same or different my answers might have been.
