Sanwo-Olu announces increase in scholarship, bursary funds for Lagos students

The Lagos State Governor, Babajide Sanwo-Olu, on Tuesday, announced a significant boost in scholarship and bursary funds for indigenes of Lagos State pursuing higher education. 

In an interactive session with Student Union Leaders and Stakeholders, the governor shared that these financial support measures are aimed at easing the educational journey for local students in tertiary institutions.

In a notable expansion of inclusivity, Sanwo-Olu revealed that scholarships will now be extended to less privileged and physically challenged students in public tertiary institutions, irrespective of their place of origin. 

He appointed four former Students Union leaders as Senior Special Assistants to emphasise the importance of involving the youth in decision-making processes at governmental levels.

The governor further emphasised the need for a strong relationship between students, universities, and the government to ensure a sustainable ecosystem and positive development for all.
