Fellow Odadeɛ ’99 Colleagues,

It gives me profound pride and quiet satisfaction to welcome you to the Odadeɛ ’99 Online Directory. This web portal is being launched as a digital home built for a remarkable cohort of men whose shared beginnings at Presbyterian Boys’ Secondary School, Legon, continue to shape our journeys decades on.

This platform is far more than a contact list. It is an interactive directory designed to help us remain visible to one another in a world where distance, demanding careers, and competing responsibilities can too easily erode connection.

Here, we can rediscover old friends, trace professional pathways, and sustain the bonds forged in classrooms, dormitories, dee-hall, joint mowing at prep, and on the (weeding!) fields of PRESEC.

As members of the Class of 1999 increasingly occupy positions of leadership and influence across business, public service, academia, technology, medicine, law, entrepreneurship, and beyond, the imperative for structured connection becomes even stronger. Networks matter. Trusted networks matter more. This portal is intended to lower the friction of collaboration, mentorship, referrals, and joint problem-solving, enabling us to leverage our collective experience not merely for individual advancement, but for shared progress. It is everyone's digital corray and guase rolled into one.

Our ambition, however, does not end with professional networking. Odadeɛ ’99 has always stood for service, discipline, and responsibility. This platform will serve as a vehicle for coordinated action. Used effectively, it should serve as a bridge across the ambitions of each one of us, allowing us to mobilise skills, resources, and ideas in pursuit of impact that reaches beyond ourselves to our communities, to our nation, and to the Church and other faith traditions that anchor many of our members’ values and commitments.

In a time that calls for principled leadership and practical contribution, we are well placed to respond with unity and purpose.

I invite you, therefore, not just to register, but to participate actively.

Update your profile. Reach out. Propose initiatives. Offer support. Seek counsel. Let this space reflect the seriousness, generosity, and excellence that have always defined the Odadeɛ spirit. Let those of lesser schools first cower in envy and awe, and then set out to imitate our inimitable excellence as they always do.

Together, we honour where we come from. Together, we strengthen where we are. And together, we shape the impact we will leave behind.

Welcome to the Odadeɛ ’99 Online Directory.

Wonder Madilo,
President, Odadeɛ ’99 Year Group Association
