Joining the Boys Brigade which is a christian organisation since 2013 (9 years ago) have been a wonderful decision I really took as a teenager, back then I really dont know about this organisation but I do see some group of boys dressing in good uniform and handling the drums in a good way and also playing the musical instruments on the street and all we have to do is to run after them. It was a funny moment but me and my younger brother were curious to know what is actually going on until we followed them to church and decided to join. We later find out it was founder by Sir Williams Alexander Smith in 1883 and it came to Nigeria in 1908.
At first I was the bass drummer for some years because I was really interested in the drum and musical part, then I moved to the snare part and finally became a trumpeter. This organisation taught me a lot of things about life and the survival part of it. Every year we have an enrolment service and anniversary where we all come together to enrol new members who are interested, promote members who are really working hards and creating impact in the organisation and also awards the patrons and patroness who are always in support.
We had our enrolment service and anniversary recently and we took some pictures which I love to share on this platform
