A chieftain of All Progressives Congress, APC, in Anambra State and founder of Olivia University, Burundi, Chief Sir Paul Chukwuma, has given JAMB registration fees for 500 indigent students in Anambra State.
Chukwuma, through his Foundation, collected the data from eligible Indigent students in fulfillment of his 2024 free JAMB registration programme which he announced during the last Christmas period.
He said that supporting education was crucial for securing the future of the people.
He said: "Initiatives such as scholarships, tuition fee support, and free WAEC and JAMB registration will be my own way of giving back to the society to ease the financial burden on students and parents."
"Ensuring access to quality education is essential for nurturing the next generation of leaders. Whatever I am today, it is through education. Without access to education, I would not have been where I am today."
“Therefore, I am proud that the selection committee, under the Sir Paul Chukwuma Foundation Education Support Scheme were able to select 500 indigent Students across the state for free JAMB registration. I sincerely thank them for the thorough job they did."
"Additionally, those of them who do well in the Jamb Examination will be given Scholarship Award, to ensure robust support for them at every level of their education, including scholarships and tuition fee payment.
“It is also important to emphasize that recipients of the free JAMB registration are not on the basis of political party affiliation or indigenes of state. Many non-indigenes who are resident in the state were equally selected."
Chukwuma said he is committed to investing in the future of the younger generation through education and other programmes that will boost their morale in pursuing a worthy future.
