More medical students get Media Trust scholarship

The scholarship scheme, which has been on for over seven years, is aimed at supporting girl child education in the country.
It is also aimed at motivating female students to study courses, which were hitherto preserved for their male counterparts.
Each beneficiary was presented with a cheque of N100,000.
Last week, the company was at the University of Ilorin, where it also awarded scholarship to ten female medical students. The same gesture will be replicated at the University of Maiduguri on October 13.
A senior staff of the university, Professor Bello Bada, who spoke at the event, urged other corporate bodies to emulate the gesture, which he described as a “rescue mission for the weaker ones.”
He said if other corporate organizations could do same, Nigeria would be a better place.
“What Media Trust is doing is what we expect of them; giving back what to the public. I was around when this programme was launched here about seven years ago. I was the Master of Ceremony and my prayer then was that it should be sustained; Alhamdulillah, it has continued,” he said.
Provost of the college, Professor Isma’ila Mungadi, who was represented by Dean, Faculty of Basic Medical Science, Professor Shu’aibu Bello, described the award as “well thought out”.
