12,000 students
benefit from shs 34M education bursary in Nyando
A TOTAL of 12,000 secondary schools students from Nyando Constituency
have been awarded bursary through the National Government Constituency
Development Fund.
Nyando Member of Parliament Jared Odoyo Okello says the
12,000 students who have benefitted from the bursary are from within the
constituency where some of them are in schools within the area while others are
in schools outside the constituency.
Addressing the gathering at Saint Christopher Ayweyo R.C
Primary school today when disbursing the Cheques to parents and Guardians of
the students, Okello said with the bursary will help in supplementing the subsidized
fees paid by the National Government.
He says all those needy students from the constituency who
applied for the bursary have benefitted from the kitty, adding that priority
has been given to total orphans.
He says even the partial orphans as well as those students
with parents who can’t afford paying their school fees have also been
considered and have benefitted.
The lawmaker has urged all the students who have benefitted
from the kitty to take their education seriously and excel academically at the
end of their four years in school.
“We want students who hails from our constituency not to
stay at home due to lack of school fees and urge them to work extra smart so
that they achieve good results at the end of their four years in secondary
school,” Okello says.
The legislator at the same time says another shs 12 million will
also be disbursed to University and College students soon after they are vetted
to be considered for the bursary.
