"It’s unacceptable that such brilliancy is not celebrated and promoted. Nevertheless, now that your genuine self is before me, I shall grant you a personal scholarship to celebrate your exceptionality and help your career defining goals”. Gov. Bello said.
After some enquiries and validation of Fatima's credentials, the Governor in his personal capacity declared a full scholarship for Fatima to study Masters in Finance Law at the Colombian Law School, st the United States of America.
The governor thanked Natasha Akpoti for her humanitarian efforts in bringing Fatima’s issue while urging Fatima to uphold her academic excellence at her forthcoming Masters program, make Nigeria proud and return home to serve her fatherland.
