According to Ambassador Oloye Ken, “Most of us have not seen
each other for over three decades, decades since we left school and that is why
I understand that the reunion get-together is always so dear to the heart of
many of us, and it gives us an opportunity to see one another and re-kindle age
long friendships. I want to congratulate Western Boys High school Old Boys
Association (WOBA) on the success of their first ever reunion and end of year
Party held in London recently and also St Maria Goretti Alumni UK and Eghosa Grammar
School Alumi UK end of year Party which took place in London recently.

“Bendel Schools Reunion and Friends is not affiliated to any
political, religious or ethnic organizations. Our goal has always been
reuniting old friends and lost school mates, sharing progressive
social-economic aspirations, ideas and projects whilst creating new
associations and foundations. Our uniqueness remains our connectivity for a
stronger collective goal for the empowerment of our community where we are our
brothers and sisters’ keepers. Our re-union event will be held next year in
Nigeria, God willing,” he added.
