The SCOBA Board of Trustees (BOT) of St. Charles' Grammar School Old Boys Association (SCOBA) mourns the passing of Lieutenant General Taoreed Abiodun Lagbaja, an esteemed Charlean & distinguished military officer.
We extend our heartfelt condolences to the Lagbaja family, friends, and loved ones during this difficult time. Lieutenant General Lagbaja's exceptional leadership, selfless service, and contributions to our nation will never be forgotten.
Welcome fellow Charleans! It's so wonderful to see this community continue to thrive and grow. Even though we may have walked the hallowed halls of our alma mater many years ago, the bonds we formed there remain strong. This alumni group provides us a space to reconnect with old friends, establish new connections, and give back to the school that gave us so much.
Our shared experiences at Osogbo fostered lifelong friendships, shaped our careers, and instilled in us the values of integrity, service, and community. As alumni, we have a responsibility to embody those values and help current and future students benefit from the same enriching opportunities we had. This group allows us to support St.Charles' educational mission through mentorship, fundraising, and volunteering. When we lift each other up, we lift up our alma mater too.
We Charleans are so proud to be a part of this compassionate, engaged community. Let's continue cultivating relationships and bettering our world together as proud Charleans alumni!
