Oyo: PDP Rep Aspirant Sponsors 75 Students On Scholarship At BECOED
The PDP Former house of Rep aspirant, and the Deputy Director general Oyo state campaign team to Engineer Seyi Makinde, Hon. John Adisa Oke has once again extended scholarship worth of millions to 75 students at Best Legacy College of Education.
The students were matriculated with their colleagues for 2018/19 academic sessions into Best Legacy College of Education on March 3rd, 2019.
Oke in his philanthropic gesture had also extended a chunk of NCE scholarship to mosques and churches across the 5-local government last year. This to afford indigent students opportunity and access to education as the outgoing government has made it more expensive and taken it far away from the reach of the poor.
The below were the mosques and churches across the 5-local governments contacted and supplied one candidate each for the NCE program at Best Legacy College of Education.
