Murtala actually went to two schools. He transferred from one in Kano to Zaria. The one in Kano he transferred from is where Abacha graduated from. 1 Like |

Barewa College remains an enigmatic institution in the North. As at 1921, biafrats were still chasing grass cutters in the bush while northerners were building western schools that would span generations. 5 Likes |

And the physical condition of the school is most despicable, almost to the point of disbelief! You dont expect any serious academic pursuit in such despicable environment. To say even a single person among the old boys has the means to turn things around for the school to reclaim its lost glory, will be an understatement. And so it is that Barewa College fell from its enviable position as a foremost public school to one of the worst schools in Nigeria! Shame on the old boys! 6 Likes 1 Share |
