In a statement on Sunday by the governor’s Chief Press Secretary, Fred Itua, Okpebholo stated this during a town hall meeting with young people in Edo State recently.
The statement read, “Edo State Governor, Senator Monday Okpebholo, recently approved the sum of ₦1 billion as bursaries for students of Edo State origin in tertiary institutions across the country as he also pledged to look into passionate requests made by various youth leaders.
“The youths had requested the introduction of bursaries to assist Edo indigenes pursuing higher education in various institutions nationwide.
“The approval of the bursary initiative by Governor Okpebholo, barely eight months in office, is expected to become an annual programme designed to ease the financial burden on students and their families.
“Eligibility for the bursary will be based on proper verification through the applicant’s local government of origin to ensure that only genuine indigenes of the state benefit from the scheme.”
The statement said Okpebholo also emphasised that the initiative aligns with his administration’s broader vision to enhance access to quality education, encourage academic excellence, and support the aspirations of Edo youths to contribute meaningfully to the development of the State and the nation.
Itua noted that further details on application procedures and timelines would be made available by the various relevant government agencies.
