A round of school fees payment for 2021 Bridge Scholarship beneficiaries was conducted for students in Abi, Yakurr, Biase, Akamkpa, Calabar South and municipal Local Government Areas of Cross River State.
During the above activity, the parents and principals of the beneficiaries were reached via phone calls to ascertain the fact that they were still in the same school. A total of 28 students, including 14 beneficiaries who participated in the TMP programme and 14 in the LCD programme, had their first, second and third term fees paid including WAEC registration paid for the few students in SSS 3, respectively.
In line with feedback gathered from the various schools, all of the shortlisted students maintained very impressive performances during the last promotion examination and are all in new classes, currently.
