With supports of old boys both at home and abroad, Mrs. Babatunde improved remarkably the educational standard of Birch Freeman High School during her short tenure as the senior school principal. Last year, 2016, with her leadership, Birch Freeman final-year students recorded 100% WAEC exam success; this colossus academic accomplishment for BFHS is a testimony to Mrs. Mojirade Babatunde’s remarkable leadership in transforming BFHS into truly one of the Ivy League schools in Nigeria.

Fellow Old Boys (home and abroad), please, join BIFOBA Exco in congratulating Mrs. Mojirade Babatubde for a job well done.

She has indeed done us proud.
