Here among where I kept my books, I found the 3rd convocation ceremony of the institution I attended, akwa ibom state polytechnic, ikot osurua.
Still today 17th October 2020, I found the 3rd Convocation Ceremony of the school I attended. Akwa Ibom State Polytechnic, Ikot Osurua, Ikot Ekpene. The date of the convocation was 11th - 13th May 2006, the venue was the convocation ground.
At the time of our convocation, Obong Ukpong Dan Umoh was the Chairman, Akwa Ibom State Polytechnic Governing Council, Otuekong Eddie Etim was the Rector, Obong Sylvester J. Akpan was Deputy Rector, Mr. Francis O. Eyo was the Registrar, Elder E. T. Etuk was the Bursar, Elder Jackson S. Umoh was the Polytechnic Librarian and the members of the Governing Council were Ho. Umana S. Umana, Arch. Iniobong J. Ukpong, Mrs. Mercy E. Bassey, Apostle M. A. Ekpo, Dr. Barr. Asuquo O. Anwana and Surv. David E. Essien.
Now I found on the programme of events the School Anthem
O! Akwapoly, in love and unity we stand
In search of glory for you
and all that you have raised
(and all that you have raised)
Mother of fame, the centre of excellence
Thy wisdom is rare and fair
Pillar of skills, a beacon of progress
We pledge to do our best.
Refrain:
We seek to raise your gains on high
Let's arise and hoist the flag
Arise!
Our dear mother, we sing another stanza
Of this melody of praise: a memoir of virtues (a memoir of virtues)
Our chasm will melt into a charming allure
To uphold thy dignity
We will abhor not your motherly reproof
Our mettle we pledge to prove.
Did I ever sing this anthem? It is like I am coming to see this, this day.
