First let me start by saying the maroon and white colors brought back the most amazing memories.
My days at FGGC Yola, I would say, are one of the best days of my life if not the best. The six years I spent were phenomenal.
Everytime I'm in yola I never miss an opportunity to go and reminisce on the good old days. So recently I was in Yola and I decided to show up at the school.

I met a few staff that I still remember and of course they very well remembered me. Everybody knew me back then. I wouldn't say I was naughty, ok, well maybe just a little, lolz.
So I went round the school, took my son on a tour to show him this place that was part of my childhood. At first he was a little bored but then he got interested when some of the staff where telling him all the stories. But he kept asking why there was red sand everywhere.
I also spotted the window I used to jump out of every time the maths Teacher came into class. Yeah, I never liked maths. Lol.

I met some few students as I was going round. Spoke to them a little and took some photos. I was looking at them and at the back of my mind I was thinking was this how I looked in the uniform back then? Lol.
I later sat with the principal Mrs zulekatu usman momodu, and had a little chat. She was very welcoming, calm and very nice. And I was telling her all the stories of way back when and how in love we were with the then principal, Aisha Bello.
It was fun sitting in the principal's office relaxed and comfortable because back then if you found yourself in the principal's office, then you probably were in trouble. It was definitely a no go area.

I was also telling the principal about the modern Arewa initiative and she got interested as I asked to have a little interview with some students and so she arranged for some of the girls to get ready for it. While the girls were getting ready, I had to leave for some important work with the plan of coming back to do the interview with the girls that day, but Unfortunately, I wasn't able to finish up on time to make it happen. I was so sad I had no time to come back the following day because I left for Lagos.
I hope to go back soon Insha Allah. Of course yola is where my heart is๐.
Enjoy few photos from that day at the school.
