Founder of Ikechukwu Ezeugwu Foundation, Hon Ikechukwu Ezeugwu has charged the South East zonal leadership of National Association of Nigerian Students, NANS to commence scouting for intelligent but underprivileged students especially those in 100 levels to join the program of November 2022 batch. 

Ezeugwu who also donated a Sienna Bus to the Association, was emphatic that with the 100 level undergraduates and beginners, their  academic pursuit will avail them more opportunities to benefit from the scholarship throughout their stay in the tertiary institution instead of selecting the mid and final year prospective beneficiaries.

While presenting the bus to NANS Zone F South-East as the first stream of their support to ease NANS flow of movement, Ezeugwu charged them to  navigate through the schools in the South-East while discharging their constitutional duties which is anchored on overseeing the welfare of Nigerian students in their zones.

Ezeugwu intimated NANS  delegates who traced him to Enugu State to appreciate the magnitude of his humanitarian efforts and to decorate him with a Medal of Honor as a show of gratitude from the students in Nigeria sometime last month, on detailed steps his Foundation had taken to fully accommodate the entire South-East in the scholarship scheme starting from their next empowerment in November this year. 

His statement read in part: “I am glad to bring to your notice that from November this year our Foundation will expand it’s scholarship scheme to the entire South East Zone as education remains the bedrock for national development and successful society.
