Africa's wealthiest man, Alhaji Aliko Dangote has awarded scholarships to 8 students of James Hope college, Agbor, Delta state.
The school was founded by Business mogul and fellow billionaire, Jim Ovia(Visafone and Cyberspace).The scholarships will cover the pupils' duration in school.
Ovia praised Dangote for his support and inspirational visit to the school. He also added this;
“James Hope College is not a school for the rich, but a full school that could give opportunities to those who do not have the resources to afford quality education.They would be allowed to enjoy some scholarship programmes. This means that a little boy, or girl from a less-privileged home can join those who have the resources in a high standard education in James Hope College.
The pupils will be given scholarships to study in the school, if they are brilliant. At least, about 35 per cent of the students will have one form of scholarship or the other; it’s either full scholarship, or partial scholarship,”
I'm delighted to be a part of the team making things happen here at James Hope College, Agbor. I give God the glory.
