Last time, in the midst of a pandemic that forced long-distance online learning across the country, the College hostel was the residence of only a few students, including 8 who sat for that year's Advanced Level Exam. Guess what, they all did well in their exams and ended up getting selected for universities. As the next exam approaches, they are now doing everything they can to make sure that their younger brothers finish with success as well.
Brotherhood is one of the most cherished Annite values and this has been seen time and time again and here is one of those moments.
Great job, boys! You are setting an excellent example.
