"This is our way of encouraging these students and contributing to the society that invested in us. Hard work pays, and we want them to know that they too can achieve greatness," Samson stated.
Samson also appreciated Mr. Soyingbe Sunday and all members of the Alumni Association for the selfless service.
The Principal of Ikoga Grammar School, Mr. Agbavo Philips, expressed gratitude for the donation, stating that such initiatives motivate students to strive for excellence.
"We deeply appreciate the Alumni Association for this kind gesture. God will bless everyone who contributed. Our major challenge has been funding, but with support like this, we can continue to reward hardworking students," he said.
He also encouraged other students to take their studies seriously, emphasizing that dedication leads to recognition and success.
Mr. Samson also addressed the declining discipline in modern schools, urging the Lagos State Government to reinforce measures that promote respect and academic seriousness among students.
"During our time, discipline was key to success. Today, students lack that structure, and it affects their performance. The government should look into this to restore the values we grew up with," he advised.
The event celebrated top-performing students, including, Akogbeto Benjamin, the Best Science Student (SS2) & Best Mathematics Student.
Fatai Karimat, the Best in English, Best Commercial Student (SS1), and Overall Best Student.
Akinplu Boluwatife, the Best Commercial Student (SS2).
The awardees expressed joy and gratitude to their teachers for their support, urging fellow students to prioritize education for future success.
This initiative highlights the power of alumni contributions in shaping the future of education. With continued support, Ikoga Grammar School aims to nurture more outstanding leaders and professionals.
