Pastor Dr. Shae Bebeyi came up for his sermon and emphasised the importance of praising God. He took the reading from the Bible from the book of Psalm chapter 150.
After the sermon, Prince Bayo Lewu was asked to commence the next stage which was the distribution of gift items to the widows. This segment is very important as a large number of widows hoped to go home with an item. Gift items such as food and clothes were distributed.
An interview with an audience, Jacob Blessing, revealed that she anticipates this annual “Odide Day” as it is commonly known as, as it is the only time of the year she gets to meet and mingle with long time Ilajo friends which puts her in good spirit. We all can agree that this annual event is worth anticipating

I will not like to bother you with so much story, rather go straight to the point, KOGI STATE COLLEGE OF EDUCATION (T), KABBA was established with so much potentials, past and previous Heads of the institution have in no small measure put in their best, but Mrs JAGBORO OLUSOLA VICTORIA has surpass everybody imagination, she has performed beyond expectations.
I am going to give empirical data of how the current provost, Mrs JAGBORO OLUSOLA has harnessed the untapped potentials at the college and give them a complete turn around inter Alia
1 At inception, the college is a glorified secondary school, but noe with most of the Academic staff posing first degree, but now mama has a success story, the number of Academic staff that have gone and comes back from further studies both internationally and nationally has changed the academic process of the college, thus positioning the college in a good status among other college of education in Nigeria.
