The Holy Family College, Oku-Abak, Abak L.G.A of Akwa Ibom State, was established in 1942 by Bishop James Moynagh SPS, then Catholic Bishop of Calabar Diocese, as the pioneer secondary school on Annang soil. At present, Holy Family College is fully owned, managed, and administered by the Catholic Diocese of Ikot Ekpene, with the Most Rev. Bishop (Dr.) C.R. Umoh as proprietor. Holy Family College runs both junior and senior secondary segments. Though it is a boarding school, a few students are allowed by the administration to attend as day students and remain in their homes.
