Senator Soliu Mustapha has unveiled plans to sponsor the West African Examinations Council (WAEC), National Examination Council (NECO), and Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) fees for Kwara students in 2025.
The Senator made this announcement during a ceremony held on Friday at the Peace Hall in Tanke, Ilorin, where he inaugurated a scholarship program for 200 Kwara Central indigenes. The event was attended by local leaders, beneficiaries, and their families.
Mustapha emphasized that the initiative is aimed at providing youths in his constituency with the opportunity to access quality education and empower them to contribute meaningfully to the society.
He noted that by supporting their educational pursuits, the program seeks to enhance the productivity and development of the constituency, especially in the long term.
"God willing, by 2025, we will roll out WAEC, NECO, and JAMB scholarships for another set of students," Mustapha said.
At the event, the Senator awarded scholarships to 200 indigenes of Kwara Central, further solidifying his commitment to improving educational opportunities in the region.
He also used the occasion to encourage parents and guardians to motivate their children and wards to take their studies seriously and aspire to success.
"I urge parents and guardians to strongly encourage their wards to study hard so they can succeed," Mustapha said.
The announcement of the sponsorship for WAEC, NECO, and JAMB exams is expected to have a significant impact on students in the region, providing much-needed financial support for their academic journeys.
