Founding Visionaries & Life-long Educators
Opening Their Hearts and Home
Known affectionately as Teacher, Elder Agada dedicated his life to teaching, mentoring, and giving children a chance to succeed.
Together with Mary, he believed education should never be limited by a child’s background or financial circumstances. Long before they held leadership roles, they opened their home to eight children and have fostered more than 30 other children beyond their own, raising and educating them as family. To them, investing in children was investing in the future of the nation.
Nationwide Reach & Public Leadership
Their influence reached far beyond their home, transforming the lives of children across Plateau, Benue, Kogi, and beyond.
Through housing several children in their family home during their sojourn in several cities and towns in Nigeria, paying school fees for many children,, mentorship, encouragement, and opportunity, they helped countless young people become professionals and leaders who continue to shape society.
As Directors of Education in Government, Elder A. A. Agada and Mary Agada carried the same values into public service—integrity, excellence, compassion, and an unwavering commitment to developing people.
