Our Story
Etodom Schools and Information Technology Centre is more than just an School — it is a tribute to a remarkable legacy. Located on Idah Road in Anyigba, Kogi State, our school was founded in September 2024 with a vision inspired by the enduring values of family, education, and purpose. Today, it stands as a symbol of excellence and transformation, offering a nurturing environment for learners from crèche to secondary school.
Inspired by Legacy
The name “ETODOM” is a heartfelt fusion of “Etonu” and “Dominic,” honoring the late Major Dominic Sale Etonu of Awo Akpali — a visionary, disciplinarian, and father to 15 children, all of whom he ensured received a university or polytechnic education. His life was a shining example of dedication, integrity, and love for learning. The founding of this school fulfills his wish: to build a lasting legacy of disciplined, well-rounded, and future-ready young Nigerians.
