The
highlighted schools morphed from primary schools/Teachers’ Training
Colleges into secondary schools before independence. The exact date of
metamorphosis of these schools cannot be ascertained, hence the original
years of establishment was used in listing them. Primary Schools and
Teachers’ Training Colleges that didn’t morph into secondary schools are
exempted from the list. Northern Provincial Schools are also exempted
because of inadequate information/recorded history.
Examples include; Adamawa Provincial Secondary School (Gen. Murtala Muhammed College), Yola (1920)?! Katsina Provincial Secondary school (Government College, Katsina) (1930)?! (Nairaland).
