FPOG Lecturers Serve as Judges at 11th Bonny Island Spelling Bee Competition

Lecturers from the Federal Polytechnic of Oil and Gas (FPOG), Bonny, have participated in the 11th Annual Bonny Island Spelling Bee Competition as judges, reinforcing the institution's commitment to literacy promotion and community development.

The competition was held on Saturday, October 17, 2026, in Bonny, Rivers State, and attracted hundreds of secondary school students from across Bonny Island.

Representing the Polytechnic were three lecturers from the Department of Languages and Communication: Mr Kiani Aaron, Miss Rachael Ebiumene and Mrs Christiana Pepple Kiani.

The lecturers presided over the various rounds of the competition, ensuring fairness in the judging process while encouraging participants to demonstrate their spelling abilities and academic competence.

Their participation formed part of the Polytechnic's community service mandate, which includes supporting educational initiatives and promoting literacy within its host community.

The institution's involvement also reflects its broader commitment to community development through active participation in local educational programmes.

Through engagements such as the annual spelling bee, FPOG continues to support initiatives that encourage academic excellence and contribute to educational development in Bonny Island.
