He stated that his sterling performance in the 2023 WASSCE, in which he recorded nine A1s, would not have been possible without the doggedness and relentless efforts of all the teachers.

The outgoing Head Boy of the college affirmed that the zero tolerance of the school to examination malpractice during both internal and external examinations, a policy, he noted, gives no room for laziness, and was the impetus he needed to succeed.

The event, which was attended by several dignitaries, also commemorated the 20th year Rehoboth College was established.

While thanking God for the successful completion of the academic year, the Proprietor of the school, Sam Popoola, noted that the school has continued to leap in bounds in its bid to become the school of choice in Kwara State.

He added that the performances of both the Junior and Senior students in external examinations like WASSCE, NECO, and JAMB were excellent, culminating in Adesina scoring nine A1s in all subjects offered.
