Mmaette, Apologies accepted, BUT NO DO AM AGAIN OO !! LOL !! Loyalty is equivalent to being Responsible...you had to do, what you had to do, both as a prefect and as a friend. Like our learned friends would say, you did not do it with malicious intent, that was why our Late friend Eno, could make a come by visit. Regards Johnny, 88

During the extension period for the class of 88 graduates, some boys snug into the girls dom; I remember names like. Obote and our dear belated Eno Ikomi were amongst. Well the boys concluded their mission and left with excitements of accomplishment, but guess what, words got to the authorities the very next day and so the commandant, Ajayi then, wanted names of the culprits. The first person he summoned to supply the names was Alison Ephraim ( I think, not so sure now) well she smartly got herself out by saying that she had been studying and had not observed the invasion. The commandant then asked for the prefects who were in the hostel at the time...that was how I was summoned to supply the names. Now all of these boys were good friends and I knew that the consequences would not be pretty for them, but here I was torn between loyalty to my friends and my responsibilities as a prefect; if I said I didn't know the boys, the commandant would know I was lying, so I chose dignity over loyalty. The boys were sent out of the school immediately, they were allowed to write their waec but as external students. Now this broke me more deeply than I think anyone ever really knew, a lot of people stopped talking to me for a while, and even I almost stopped talking to myself; that I had to leave school on that kind of note. Was a terrible burden for me. Luckily for me, a few people did forgive me on their own, Eno Ikomi actually came to visit me at home a few months after we graduated, I was really grateful for that, but I never really got the tell the boys how terribly sorry I was. So boys of '88 I am very sorry, I know you all have forgiven me long ago, and some may not even remember this incidence, but this is something I have aways wanted to do, please accept my apologies.

I remember we arrived with the school bus from the airport that term, must have been in 1985 not quite sure and was told that everybody had to be checked at the administrative block to be sure that we had all that was in the school prospectus for the term and then a notice was also placed that no one was allowed in with garri. I also remember that for the first time since i got into command in 1983 i had almost half a bag of garri that term, i decided to hide it outside while the check was going on inside the staff room, i was luck to get away without being catch then the next hurdle was to get it pass the perfects at the gate of the hostel i realised it was going to be a very difficult task so i hide it behind the assemble hall hoping to go back for it later at night. my friends and i thot it was a well thought out plan until.......
