Anagor, a student of Federal Government College, Onitsha who emerged the
overall best student in NECO and WASC examinations in 2012 has rewarded with a
scholarship 2.2 million naira by Governor Peter Obi. Governor Obi announced the
scholarship package while receiving her at the Government House, Awka, earlier
in the week. The Governor presented the elated student with a cheque of N2,
220,000 to cover for her six-year Medical studies at the University of Ibadan,
where she had already been admitted.
Obi who was
visibly proud of Anagor’s accomplishments said such performance will encourage
him to keep visiting secondary schools in the state to encourage students to
take their studies seriously, saying he would soon extend it to primary
schools.
Reeling out names of Anambra people who are champions in their areas, Obi said the state would keep on searching for them wherever they are with the view of presenting them as role models to the younger ones.
