USOSA

The Unity Schools Old Students’ Association (USOSA) is the incorporated Trustee of the alumni Associations of all the 104 Federal Government Colleges.

The Unity Schools Old Students’ Association (USOSA) is the incorporated Trustee of the alumni Associations of all the 104 Federal Government Colleges, Federal Government Girls’ Colleges, Kings College, Queens College, Federal Government Boys College, Apo, Federal Science Colleges, Suleja Academy and Federal Science and Technical Colleges in Nigeria. It is an association with over 500,000 members r

esident in Nigeria and in the Diaspora. USOSA’s major strategy is to actively partner with relevant stakeholders for the development and sustenance of a vibrant education sector and good governance in Nigeria. The precursor of USOSA was the “Federal Government Colleges Old Students Association” (FEGOCOLOSA) which was started in the 1970s in the Nation’s universities by old students of Federal Government Colleges. Unfortunately, FEGOCOLOSA fizzled out without gathering the much-needed momentum required to galvanise it to a sustainable force with viable branches outside the universities. Things were however to turn around much later when the old students of the 3 first generation Federal Government Colleges (i.e. FGC Sokoto, Warri & Okposi/Enugu) came together in January 2006 under the name “The Pro Unitate Forum”. The Forum was subsequently adopted as the umbrella body of the old students of all Federal Colleges/Unity Schools. When it became necessary to incorporate this newly formed body, the adopted name “The Pro Unitate Forum” was not acceptable to the Corporate Affairs Commission. Hence, the present name “Unity Schools Old Students Association” (USOSA) which was eventually incorporated in April 2007. The spark that led to the re-emergence of a common platform for all old students of Federal Government Colleges was based on the need to have a pressure to engage with the Federal Government to rescind her decision of fully concessioning the Unity Schools to private sector operators . Having succeeded on that initiative, the body has come to stay as a stakeholder in promoting the development and growth of the Unity Schools in particular and the Nigerian education sector in general. USOSA is currently headed by Mr Albert Okumagba , the president general who is a distinguished old student of both the Federal Government College Warri and Kings College. USOSA OBJECTIVES
1) Rekindle the vision of the founding fathers of this nation who came up with the concept of Unity Schools as centers of academic excellence, national integration, leadership, capacity building and national unity.
2) Influence policy changes that would positively affect the admission, funding and administration of the Unity Schools.
3) Review the ownership/corporate governance structures of Unity schools with the aim of providing sound and best-of-breed administrative leadership in the schools.
4) Attract policy makers from both the public and private sectors to review in general, Secondary School Education in Nigeria and proffer strategies that would enhance the growth and development of secondary school education as a foundation for sound academic, moral education and national economic development.
5) Foster private sector participation in the funding of Unity Schools.
6) Engage Government at all levels and the private sector in constructive, positive advocacy, actions and initiatives geared towards revamping educational standards across our public schools.
7) Provide a platform for promoting and advising on the unity of the Nigerian Nation.
8) Hold meetings, plenary sessions, presentations, seminars, workshops, conferences and all other fora for the advancement of these aims and objectives.
9) Undertake anything or project that is reasonably incidental or consequential to the furtherance of these aims and objectives.
