Old boys of St John’s Grammar School, Ile-Ife are marking the alma mater’s diamond anniversary by showing how tech-savvy they are. They are spreading the news of the 60th anniversary of the school by posting their portraits on their social media pages. Titled “Proudly Johnian“, the portraits show the face, the name as the current achievement of the old boys. Campaign manager and publicity secretary Kehinde Bamigbetan said the awareness strategy started like a flicker but has now caught fire. ” The request from members for the “Proudly Johnian” portraits is amazing. Despite advising members that they can actually do it on their own and post on their pages, many still prefer getting their portraits from. where it all began.” Over 150 portraits were done by the graphic designers in the first 10 days of the campaign and individually designed portraits are about 50. Bamigbetan thanked the old boys for embracing the campaign urging set leaders to spread the word until it goes fully global. Proudly Johnian [wppa type=”slideonlyf” album=”1″ align=”center”]
