The 1985 set alumni of Government College Ibadan, in an attempt to empower students and ensure they did not miss out on opportunities, have paid for the purchase and registration of the top 20 students for the forthcoming JAMB examination.

Government College Ibadan (GCI) is a foremost and prestigious secondary school for boys, renowned for academic excellence, character building, rich and diverse extracurricular activities and sports development.

It was established on February 28, 1929, by the government as a model school and conceived as a boarding school. It is served by a huge expanse of land, possibly the biggest in the nation, featuring the school administrative block, classrooms, sports fields, student dormitories, orchard, staff quarters, and old boys complex.
