THE STORY OF ABEOKUTA GRAMMAR SCHOOL

Did you know that one of Nigeria’s most historic schools started over 100 years ago right here in Abeokuta?

This is the story of Abeokuta Grammar School, a school widely regarded as the first grammar school in Nigeria,

and the first secondary school established outside Lagos.

On April 23, 1908, the school was established



But the school was not originally located where it is today.

It started at Ita Agbadu, also known as Ijemo Agbadu, in Abeokuta.

And interestingly, the school did not stay there for long.

In December 1908, the Church Missionary Society, CMS, moved the school to Isale Igbein.

When Abeokuta Grammar School started, it was an all-boys school.

But that changed in 1914.

That was the year the school began admitting female students, making it a mixed school.

One of the most important figures in the history of Abeokuta Grammar School was Ransome-Kuti, popularly known as I. O. Ransome-Kuti.

Father of the legendary Nigerian musician and activist, Fela Anikulapo-Kuti.

Ransome-Kuti served as the principal of Abeokuta Grammar School from 1932 to 1954.

Making him the longest-serving principal in the history of the school.

Coincidentally
Ransome-Kuti was actually the very first student whose name was entered into the school's register.

In 1921, the Abeokuta Grammar School Old Boys' Association, popularly known as AGSBOA, was formed.

Regarded as the oldest alumni association in Nigeria.

Over the years, Abeokuta Grammar School produced many prominent Nigerians who went on to make their marks in different fields.

Among them is Professor Wole Soyinka, the Nobel Prize-winning writer.

The school also produced Funmilayo Ransome-Kuti, one of Nigeria's most famous activists and women's rights leaders.

Thank you.

RAT IN MY SHOP HAS CONSPIRED TO WlCKED ME

At first, it was the ants.

Whenever I bought palm oil in this five-litre keg

the ants would always find a way to pe*****te it.

I still don't know how they did it.

It was like, whenever am not around, they would call themselves together and organize a big party inside my precious red oil....drinking to stupor...

and when I come to the shop the next morning

I would spend the whole day scooping hundreds of thousands of ants out of my palm oil.

I got so tired

So I decided to break their defence by using nylon to seal the mouth of the jerrycan before closing the cap.

So that, anytime the ants tried to pe*****te, the nylon would stop them.

And it worked.

The issue of ants entering my palm oil was solved...

Or so I thought.

I don't know if the ants had a secret meeting and concluded that since they could no longer pe*****te the defence to drink from my delicious palm oil,

it was time to hire some bigger teeth....Rats

Because one day, I came to my shop and...

the rat had chewed through the jerrycan,

and my precious palm oil had completely spilled all over the floor.

I was so pi**ed.

First, it was the ants.

Now, it was the rat.

If you wanted to drink the oil, why not just open the cap gently and drink,if possible use cup?

Why chew the whole jerrycan,

knowing fully well that all the oil would spill onto the floor?

Oh... I remember.

Rats don't reason like human beings.

Since that day, I started hiding my palm oil inside the freezer.

Yesterday, I finished the remaining palm oil from the jerrycan, so I decided to leave the empty jerrycan outside since there was no longer any need to hide it in the freezer.

Today, I came to the shop...

And to my greatest surprise, I saw this...

the rat still chewed the empty keg.

Apparently, the rat decided to punish me for hiding the palm oil from them all this while by chewing the empty keg to teach me a lesson.

Rat be like;

"YOU THINK SAY YOU DEY WISE?" 😂
