I thought it was a scam until I got ₦200,000 alert — ABSU student

…Says no Abia Central student should quit school over poverty…Explains PDP exit, defection to ADC

UMUAHIA — A 400-level Medicine and Surgery student of Abia State University (ABSU), Uturu, Godswill Ezennwa, has described as “uncommon” the education grant programme of Senator Austin Akobundu after receiving an instant ₦200,000 bank alert.

Ezennwa was among over 200 students from Abia Central Senatorial District who benefited from the senator’s education support initiative. The programme also included full three-year scholarships for 113 students of the National Teachers’ Institute (NTI).

Speaking on behalf of the beneficiaries, Ezennwa said he initially doubted the authenticity of the programme until the money reflected in his account.
