Welcome to FGGCIOI

Thank you for visiting the Website of the Federal Government Girls College, Ikot Obio Itong, Akwa Ibom State, Nigeria [FGGC 101]. 

The Focus on the education of the girl child amongst nations, society and the family is of strategic importance and of great value to nation building and society. The girl child evolves into a mother. The mother is the care giver, the gate way to life for her off springs. She is saddled with the responsibility for the necessary early upbringing of her infant, caring for the home front, and she also doubles as a bread winner where the Man is  no longer disposed to providing for the Family.

The impact on national development and advantage of educating the girl child can be summarized in this saying  “When you educate a man, you educate an individual and when you educate a woman, you educate an entire family.” This declaration is multi faceted—an educated woman has the self confidence, skills as well as intelligence to understand the need to be a better daughter, sister, wife and mother and make a progressive family. Education is the only tool with which a girl or a woman can empower herself and eventually her family”. - Prerna Priya [Girl Child Education –The key to development]

FGGC 101 was setup by the Federal Ministry of Education, Abuja, Nigeria to achieve the objective of National development and cohesion. Established in 1989, in a remote area in Akwa Ibom State, South-South of Nigeria.  FGGC 101 has played, and is playing a vital role in the education of the girl Child. Our graduates are amongst the best in the world. Our College has groomed the likes of Miss Ndifreke Andrew Essien – Executive Director of the Young African Leaders Initiative, a celebrated international Youth personality who was interviewed by the Cable News Network [CNN].             

Welcome to FGGC 101, we run the 6 years College curriculum, split into three years of Junior Secondary and three years of Senior Secondary education, our students undertake the Basic Education Certificate Examination for our junior School and West African School Certificate Examinations and National Examination Council examination.

In this era of global economic challenge, our focus for the year 2016-2018 is to empower  our student with vital skills for self sustainability, development of their innate Sports talent and all round Sound education with a bias for STEM [Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics ] education.     With a moral foundation,  self confidence and good grades I believe our students can actualize their dreams and compete with their peers from any part of the globe.

On behalf of Management, Staff and Students, once again I say welcome to the website of FGGC 101, the only binary coded Federal Unity College in Nigeria.
