“Attend Secondary School to Know!”, the principal responded.
The Ovim people value education; we record 100% from primary to secondary school transition now. During my time in Ovim Community School, they played one of the tricks. Mr. Chigbu, the headmaster, told us the story of Ikemefuna as recorded in Day by Day Book 6. Then the story finished half-way, and we wanted to know what happened to Ikemefuna. He said he would return tomorrow with an answer.

So, for everyone, just to know what happened to Ikemefuna was a key reason to sign-up. Now you can get the idea how Chinua Achebe’s Things Fall Apart remains priceless in communities.
And I commend the Anambra State for honouring the finest of his generation. Well done Governor Soludo for not dropping another politician. I know that Nigeria likes to name schools, airports, etc after people, this one is approved.
