Our Story

A Legacy of Excellence
Since 1999

Okengwe Comprehensive College Idoma — OCCIDOMA — was founded in 1999 with a singular vision: to provide a world-class secondary education to every child in the Okengwe community and beyond. Situated along the Okene-Okengwe road in Okene, Kogi State, Nigeria, we have grown from a modest institution into one of the most respected secondary schools in the region.

We offer a full six-year secondary education programme — Junior Secondary School (JSS1–JSS3) through Senior Secondary School (SS1–SS3) — across Science, Commercial, and Arts streams. We are a co-educational, government-approved institution, committed to the holistic development of every student.

Over 25 years, we have produced hundreds of graduates making meaningful contributions in medicine, engineering, law, business, and public service across Nigeria. Our motto — "Your destiny is not your decision, but your discovery" — guides everything we do.
