Five hundred youths drawn from various communities in Enugu East/Isi-Uzo Federal Constituency of Enugu State have benefited from Hon. Professor Paul Sunday Nnamchi’s University scholarship scheme.

The scholarship scheme was instituted by the Federal lawmaker who represents Constituency in the House of Representatives to cater for indigent constituent students in higher institutions.

The beneficiaries who are currently on admission in various universities across the country are pursuing the following disciplines; microbiology, biochemistry, human physiology, and human anatomy.

Others are studying mass Communication, Business Education, Education Chemistry, Industrial Chemistry Computer Science and Civil Engineering among others.

Their school fees amounting to millions of naira have already been paid by Professor Nnamchi for the current academic session not withstanding the challenges some of them had encountered in their performances.

The scholarship scheme was in fulfillment of Rep Nnamchi’s campaign promises of empowering of the youths of Enugu East/Isi Uzo Federal Constituency.

The scholarship according to him was to help those desiring to study at the tertiary levels but lacked the wherewithal to further their education after secondary schools.
