A 1967 alumnus of Government Secondary School (GSS), Afikpo, Dr. Paul Erinne, has committed N250 million to remodel the school’s Assembly Hall in what stakeholders described as the largest single alumni-funded infrastructure project in any secondary school in South-east Nigeria.

Erinne, a structural engineer and founder of the Paul Erinne Foundation, announced the intervention during the 2026 National Delegates Conference of the Government Secondary School Afikpo Old Boys’ Association (GSSAOBA) held at the school premises in Afikpo, Ebonyi State.
