“History shall be made today 21 September 2024.
As the first all girls OPM technical college in Nigeria will be having its first Entrance Examination today.
In Nigeria there are technical college for both girls and boys.
In Nigeria there are also technical colleges for only boys.
But in Nigeria there are no technical colleges only for girls.
The girl child need to be financially empowered before she even enters university.
