WONDERFUL!

FRIDAY 7TH JULY, 2000

Today 7th of July, 2000 and Friday have been one of the most interesting days I have ever witnessed in my life. We all went to the assembly early in the morning. In the assembly the Commandant, L.T. Colonel G.M. Ringim briefed us for sometime before reminding us again about the great event that is going to take place tomorrow-- the speech and prize giving ceremony. Then the names of the prize winners were called out to enable them prepare against tomorrow. The first name in JSS2 was mine. Names were called out according to prizes won.  Mathematics-- Ali Faisal, English Language-- Ali Faisal, Integrated Science-- Ali Faisal, Agricultural Science-- Ali Faisal and Hausa. I had six in all. I felt so much great. I thank Allah for making me witness a day that my name is called out in the assembly haven done something worthwhile. I happily wrote my Integrated Science examination after the assembly.

I was congratulated by some of my classmates. While some openly showed their envy.
