ONDO STATE GOVERNMENT TO PAY 50,000 NAIRA AS BURSARY TO EACH STUDENT

After a wide consultation and constructive agitation,,Dr Olusegun Mimiko through Ondo State Scholarship Board under the chairmanship of Hon Dayo Awude has concluded plans to start paying our bursary from tomorrow 19-02-2015.
THE National Association of Ondo State Students (NAOSS) has urged the State government to increase their bursary allowances from N10,000 to N50,000 to help them meet financial demands.
The association noted that due to the increase of school fees by various institutions, the N10,000 can no longer cover their needs. 
At a press conference in Akure, the state capital, the President of the association, Comrade AFolayan Awodola assured students that the newly-elected executives would continue to protect the interest of the students.
“From our quarters, we are demanding for increase in the bursary allowances from N10,000 to N50,000. This will enable students to meet their welfare demands in their various institutions. We advised the governor to work with the association to ensure favourable learning conditions for all students of Ondo origin in various tertiary institutions in Nigeria and Diaspora.
