IGP visits alma mater in Lagos

The acting Inspector-General of Police (IGP), Kayode Egbetokun, on Saturday, July 22, 2023, made a memorable visit to his alma mater, Anglican Comprehensive High School, Ipaja in Lagos State in preparation for the school’s 50th Anniversary.

Egbetokun, who was a 1979 set of the school, said his visit was not in the capacity of the IGP but as an alumni and particularly as the Chairman of the Planning Committee for the 50th anniversary celebration of the school.

The IGP commended the Anglican Communion and the school management for keeping to the Anglican tradition of excellence and also promised to make contacts by calling on friends and other people to support the school for massive turnaround to its infrastructures.

Reminiscing on his time at the school, the IGP said he was grateful to God for the time spent at the school and the impact the school had on him.

On his part, the National President, Rev. Femi Lapite, also thanked all members of the management and assured the institution of continuous support as indicated by the IGP.

The Executive Secretary of Lagos Anglican School’s Management Board, Dr Ayo Olusa expressed gratitude to the IGP and the members of the Old Students Association for their supports and concerns.

The Principal of the school, Ven. Joseph Adediji, expressed delight at the visit of one of the old boys and enjoined others to support the school in his developmental drive.
