Like Flies of Time: The Memories of My Childhood RCM Primary School, Yabo, Benue Been

A thing on the primary school that encara the fact is #out is that, RCM primary school, Yabo has remained one and only school Mbagba-Mbasombo, which has trained and will continue to train leaders of individuals of future/resource. Any boy that grows-up Mbagba has to happen #by the colegial academically to his future drawn. A day, one of his old students will remember to put it form.
RCM primary School, Yabo is the academic learning only the centre located Mbagba Council ward of Mbasombo District, Gwer-Local Government Of the this Zone of Benue Been. The school has been established on fact 40 years by the Novel Catholic Mission (RCM) when it splits of the strategy to extend the gospel also when educate the followers of the Christian religion, which was majorly the local populace in the zone. Because of frequent change in educative politics Benue been, the school was last taken-on by Gwer-Local Government Of the this Authority when directed by the state executive. This was in the 1980s and since then, the primary school has remained a enduring academic centre in the training of students for the next-by secondary schools.
Primary six, have been given the Health prefect. The function of this position by creation is to look after the cleanliness of the school compound, ensure that dressed of students neat (tuck-inside with clean uniform), wear sandals time of bathroom sleepers, also when try any eat prepared to be sold to #student to the school. Between all these, trying of foods like Me-Me, (boiled dough) Akara, (cake of beans) Alumbre and Sleeve (orange and handle fruits), before leaving students to buy was my best. The reason is obvious. Hunger Was a common enemy for all the students. Still in some how many students could choose yam with them. The yam serious roasted during time of split marries particular that was more next to the colegial that the neighboring houses. Achieving alimentary to eat in the school before closing time that was 1:30 pm was a case. In this circumstance, one can comprise why trying the eat was my best or favourite have to like Health prefect. The primary school there #be fair a Good (has Resisted hole) of on twenty eight deep feet that each drink of student of. The water was obviously dirty but fairly 'translucent' which students of mark explain in his bonté.
The wise Structure, the primary school has not changed. Even so, there is consistent depreciation in the population of the students that answer the school like new private schools has arisen in the neighboring cities. In the moment, only few students answer the school like a lot of parents takes his boys in better schools in the neighboring cities like Ikpa-yongo, Apir, Aliade or even Makurdi that it is the state capital.
The name of our Headmaster, then, was Sir Patrick Aduku Iordye. It was a indigene of the community and knows the father of #each body also when mother. Sometimes even could you say when your successful marred in the village and the event that there has been place during your birth. All these were somehow meaning to impress you but mostly to show that there is at all on you that does not know . There has been an only way to handle students that he have done most of fearsome figure to the school. His usual way to punish the students was " Goes mwua or kyua". This involves hurting of cheeks in a way that anybody elevates will want to it experience two time. By which have not experienced the headmaster punishment, always beg never to find it. On the other hand, the headmaster was an intelligent professor that teaches almost all the subjects. Even so more students, with me included, only happened his examinations or proofs for fear to be exposed to 'hurt-cheeks' punished'.

Until the time have left the primary school, the Mbagba the community was responsible for the building of cameras of kind, or huts that were the basic shield under which students seats and learn. Black boards, chalks and English and Mathematics books of text were provided usually by the authority of local government. In weekly, there was a particular day tagged "Work" that all the students would go out to work. The Students matured serien sent to work in farms of professors, while immature students mostly primary one, two and three serious asked to clean the school compound. To Any student likes the labour day still like this all have to come in colegial and partake in the work for fear to be punished the next day.
I remembers most of the faces of my colleagues kind three same although it could not remember his full names. Primary three, have not been many and there were people have remembered vividly, no because we were in the same kind but because they were excessively exceptional in the kind. There was this particular sir (daughter) has called Mfanyi Tsegba who has come of a different school and has joined us kind three. His normal position kind was First (1st) till the time separate ways afterwards primary six. Other people also remember is Terver Mba'akaa, Aondongu Ugba, Terhemen Kyura-one, and Cormfort Adie.
On twenty five years does, have answered the primary school only in my village that consistently has played a significant function in the training of girls inside the community stop on four decades. When have had an occasion to visit house (my village) recently, have taken a walk in the primary school from next era in the church of village have answered. When have walked by the road that directs in the handle tree where we (school boys) used to play, that strikes memories ensued my thought and quickly arrives mine like flies of time.
