LAGOS STATE GOVERNMENT AWARDS SCHOLARSHIP TO 340 STUDENTS

No fewer than 340 indigenous students
of Lagos State, studying in tertiary
institutions across the state will on 5
October be awarded scholarships worth
N20 million, by the Youth of All Nations
(YOANEA) in partnership with the state
Government.
The scholarships, according to Jeff
Echezona Joshua, are......

aimed at encouraging people to go to
school as well as alleviating the
sufferings some indigent students go
through.
He explained that education remains
one of the vital tools for society’s
development and called on stakeholders
to always mobilise their wards to
acquire valuable knowledge, regardless
of the challenges involved.
“After much analysis, we also discovered
that some political wards do not have
enough representation in terms of
students pursuing higher education
across the country. We challenge every
stakeholder in the affected areas to
mobilize their people to check the non-
enrolment problem,” he added.
