PHOTOS: Dilapidated State Of Ogedengbe School Of Science, Ilesa Where Students Learn Under Ruined Structures

Ogedengbe Commercial School now Ogedengbe School of Science is situated in Ilesa, an ancient town in Ijesaland. The school was established in the early 1950s but it changed from Ogedengbe Commercial School to Ogedengbe School of Science in 2002 under the administration of Chief Bisi Akande.

The school is located at Ilaje Curtis, Oja Aba along Muroko road in Ilesa. It is directly opposite Holy Trinity Primary School which is few metres away from an outlet owned by Federal Fire Service. There are shops, kiosks and outlets attached to the school fence where goods can be bought.

On a Saturday evening, WITHIN NIGERIA reporter visited Ogedengbe School of Science, Oja Aba along Muroko Road. When this reporter alighted from commercial bike, more than three signposts erected by different graduating sets of the school were sighted which made it easier for him to locate the school.

As this reporter walked to the gate, he observed that the vicinity of the school was neat and the first two buildings he sighted were structurally fine and painted. Elders that advise not to judge a book by its cover were not wrong. This reporter toured the entire school and was shocked and terrified by what he found on the ground.
