by The member representing Obanliku/Bekwarra/Obudu Federal Constituency, Hon. (Chief) Peter Akpanke has donated the sum of N200,000 each to twelve (12) law school students from his OBO Federal Constituency, and charged them to be worthy ambassadors of the Constituency.
Hon. Akpanke, who presented the cash, said the gesture was part of his promise during his campaign to contribute to the growth and development of education in the area.
The lawmaker also noted that, the financial assistance is without political or ethnic affiliations but to assist and cushion the effects of hardship occasioned by the removal of petroleum subsidy in the country.
“We cherish education and one of the ways through which we can impact our society is to give unfettered access to education and assist our students” Akpanke added.
He charged them to be exceptional ambassadors not only of the legal profession but also of their federal constituency, urging them to use their legal knowledge and prospective expertise to positively impact their respective communities, in a bid to promote justice and equity in the society.
