Baptist Medical Centre Schools · Saki, Oyo State · Est. 1902
One institution, born from a mission station on a hillside in 1902 โ now home to three schools that carry the same steady pulse of Christian compassion and academic rigour, from nursery through Higher National Diploma.
“Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me.” โ Matthew 25:40, Our Motto
About Us
Since its inception in 1902, Baptist Medical Centre (BMC), Saki has stood as a beacon of quality healthcare in the Oke-Ogun region of Oyo State. Established by the Nigerian Baptist Convention's Southern Baptist Mission, the Centre's evolution reflects the dedication of missionaries, indigenous leaders, healthcare professionals and the communities it serves. BMC Nursery & Primary School, BMC Secondary School and BMC College of Nursing all grew out of that same mission โ carrying its faith, discipline and care into the classroom and the training ward.
“Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me.”
Guided by the love of God revealed through Jesus Christ, Baptist Medical Centre, Saki is committed to enhancing health, dignity and holistic well-being โ achieved through compassionate, innovative and effective healthcare services, enriched by education and research excellence.
We remain steadfast in delivering world-class healthcare and education rooted in Christian ethics, continually striving to meet the dynamic needs of the Oke-Ogun region and beyond with compassion, innovation and excellence.
Compassion, Integrity, Excellence, Discipline and Service โ the same values that have guided the hospital next door since 1902.
Recognised by the Oyo State Ministry of Education and the relevant nursing and education regulatory bodies governing our ND and HND programmes.
On 22 November 1901, Revd Duval arrived in Saki through the American Southern Baptist Mission, later joined by Miss Davey, Miss Donath, and Rev. and Mrs. Powell, during the reign of Okere Oyedokun I. With Rev. D. O. Toogun and Olaosebikan, he settled a preaching station at Okeboji in 1902. That May, Rev. and Mrs. Duval opened a small dispensary in their own home to care for converts.
The humble dispensary grew with four new rooms โ an outpatient department, a resting room, a laundry and consulting/counselling offices โ expanding patient care capacity.
Miss Amanda Tinkle and Miss Mannie David arrived as trained nurses, strengthening clinical services during this period.
With support from the Foreign Mission Board, the modern Baptist Hospital officially opened, significantly upgrading medical infrastructure and services for the Oke-Ogun region.
Missionary doctors and nurses left due to the civil war, and Mr. T. A. Ogunjimi, a nurse, stepped in to manage the Centre โ a legacy of local leadership the institution still carries today.
The secondary school opened in September 1993 as the first private secondary school in Oke-Ogun, set up as a model of academic and moral excellence for the region and for Nigeria at large.
