Yea sad to hear about Zakka and PK.two legends of the 84 set and of Tiger
house.
Zakka was our best 100 meters runner as teacher blosoomed late.I see the seeds
that the 80 sets were sowing in the early days germinated into very terrible
trees.am I surprised?NO!!! Cssj had those tendencies.Students were already
hiring parents when dey got suspended and students were already hiring houses
in
naraguta near the home econs block and used it as a bar and red light
district.For the sake of tour children and families I no go mention names.But
anybody wey make we vex.as I was saying students using ambulance to sneak
out.who remembers that our Janitor?I beg who knows what happened to him?Who
remembers Senior Murphy?where is he now?what about Peter Anyebe?I saw him last
in 98.pls fill me in as much as possible on commandos in Abuja as I will be
there soon.I beg did any commando marry their school sweet hearts?the only one
I
know is Senior Sam and Senior Buki 83 set.If there is anyone else u know let me
know there is an award for them.the set does not matter.

Kester/Mike
I still dey kankpe. I am fine here(Aberdeen) preparing for the cold.
I visited CSSJ some time back and was really shocked by the state of things.
But think i saw some little change in August '10 when i was in Jos.
Have read all that is going on about our former House Master Pa Uwakwe, i shall
send in my contribution.
Kester hope u know that Zakka is late? Also heard that PK is late too, i really
have not confirmed that.
I do appreciate all the hits from the old students, its really some good stress
therapy. It also brings to memory some of those joyous moments in CSSJ. Markus
Danrimi, Elaigwu(teacher), Daniel Mamjing(Jack Lord) are all in the Army. I
dont know where they are serving at the moment.
take Kia guys and God bless u richly
