  1. Mayflower School

    Mayflower School was founded in January 1956 by Tai Solarin , a Nigerian educator and civil rights pioneer, who was married to Sheila Mary Tuer , a British woman. It is located on a vast piece of land in Ikenne , Ogun State , Nigeria . It is named after the historical Mayflower ship that brought the first batch of pilgrims to the present United States . Like the pilgrims, Solarin founded the school in personal rebellion against religious persecution . Mayflower preaches a very strong educational philosophy grounded in self reliance, self sacrifice, public service and physical toughness. In Solarin s words, the students must be rugged. Since the school was first established, in the boarding house, female students are forbidden from using any form of cosmetics . A rigorous, military style living regimen requires that every student wake up at 5 15 am for a round of moderate physical exercise . In his days, Solarin would often be the first to show up for these exercises. He urged his students to always lead by example. The school s motto is Knowledge is Light and it is noted for the outstanding quality of its graduates , many of whom are leaders in the country and abroad. Every student is taught the basics of rudimentary and mechanized farming as part of a well rounded, self sustaining education. The students wear a uniform styled after Tai Solarin s trademark apparel simple khaki shorts and short sleeve shirts. This applies to both male and female students. Graduates of the school are called Ex Mays. The school s sound academic reputation has produced a long record of achievements, including the first female engineer in sub Saharan Africa .
