History of FGC IBillo

BRIEF HISTORY
The present site of Federal Government College, Ibillo was
originally occupied by Anglican Girls Grammar School, Ibillo
which was established in the 1960(s). Later in 1978, the
name was changed to Okpameri Girls Grammar School. In
1995, after the creation of Edo State from the Bendel
State, there was the need to establish a Federal
Government College in the state to cater for boys and girls
since Federal Government College Warri now belong to
Delta State. This now led to the establishment of Federal
Government College, Ibillo in 1995 which took over the site
of Okpameri Grils Grammar School. The firts set of students
reported to the college on the 13th May, 1995. Since the

THE COLLEGE ANTHEM
Great FEGOCOL I reverend thee
My ever dearest, Alma-mater
Prepare me with thy tenderest love

Uphold thy course of brotherhood.

Oh thou glorious day

For live great sea

With pride and joy
I vow to reflect and adore thee.
