Title: “Zamfara West: Promoting free education through university scholarships”
Introduction :
In a laudable initiative to promote free education and support deserving students, Senator Yari from Zamfara West Constituency has announced plans to sponsor 60 students for university studies. This announcement was made by the Constituency Office Coordinator, Alhaji Sha’aya Sarkin-Fawa, during a press conference held in Gusau. This decision demonstrates the senator’s commitment to supporting the education of the less privileged and orphans in the region.
Promoting education for all:
The project involves awarding 10 university scholarships to deserving students from each local district in the constituency. Local districts include Anka, Bakura, Bukkuyum, Gummi Maradun and Talata-Mafara. In total, 60 young students will have the opportunity to continue their higher education thanks to this initiative. Recipients will be selected based on their high school final exam results and will receive financial support for their entire university studies, from first year until graduation.
Careful planning:
Senator Yari has already taken concrete steps to realize this project by receiving 60 registration forms from the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) for the university entrance examination of the year 2024. These forms were distributed to local district coordinators for the selection of qualified candidates. By ensuring forms are submitted in a timely manner, the senator is showing his commitment to giving students the best chance to succeed and pursue their academic dreams.
A commitment to free education:
This initiative is part of Senator Yari’s overall policy to promote free education, particularly for the most deprived children and orphans. By investing in the future of these young students, the senator intends to offer them an opportunity to develop their skills and contribute to the development of the region. It is also important to highlight that this initiative is not limited to a simple scholarship, it also aims to encourage a culture of academic excellence among young people and stimulate their motivation for success.
Conclusion :
Senator Yari’s commitment to free education is an initiative that deserves to be commended. By providing university scholarships to 60 deserving students from Zamfara West, it is helping to break down the financial barriers that prevent many young people from accessing tertiary education. This initiative not only paves the way for new opportunities for students, but also highlights the importance of investing in education for the development of society as a whole. Hopefully, other political leaders will follow suit and actively support free education for all.
