School Story:
I was admitted into Command Secondary School Lagos in September 1981 and graduated in 1986.
Along Jolly Nosakhare, my friend from Army Children School, I was assigned to Boys House 1 which later became Zambezi House and later Dragon House.
In early 1982, Jolly and I felt terribly home sick and so we began to plot our escape from School (just to spend a day at home, which at the time was the Ojo Military cantonement)
We determined that Saturday afternoon would present the best opportunity for our escape since our absence would not be noticed over the weekend.
We successfully executed our escape on the chosen Saturday and arrived home in the evening. Unfortunately, our parents didn't welcome us (in fact they were very angry with us) ; to make matters worse, the Housemaster Mr Jatto decided to do a roll call on the night of our escape and we were found out.
On arrival at school the next day, we were matched by our Dorm captain to meet Edmund Ani, the House captain at the time.
Our offense was called "Breaking of Bounds".
Only God delivered us from being suspended.
