MP,DCE OFFERS SCHOLARSHIP TO 100 STUDENTS IN BIBIANI-ANWIANSO- BEKWAI MUNICIPALITY:
Over 100 students in Bibiani-Anhwiaso-Bekwai Municipality have been awarded scholarships to pursue 3-year courses at Royal Nursing College, Kumasi.
The students were randomly selected from the various communities in the Municipality to study Diploma in General Nursing, Midwifery, and certificate in nursing.
Delivering the admission letters and the scholarship packages to the prospective students, the MCE, Hon Paul Andoh indicated that the scholarships emanated from the Otumfour Education Fund. He expressed his heartfelt gratitude to the Royal Majesty, Otumfour Osei Tutu ll for the offer. “Initially, 35 slots were granted to the Municipal Assembly but the MP and MCE negotiated for additional slots and the number shot up to 100”, the MCE asserted. He continued that the facility was given to the entire region but the allocation for Bibiani-Anhwiaso-Bekwai has been phenomenal as a result of the good relationship between the leadership of the Municipality and the scholarship Secretariat.
The students were admonished by the MCE to study hard to come out with flying colours. They were also advised to lead morally upright lives since they are the ambassadors of the Municipality. Their attitudes could derail the fortunes of the younger generation. Finally, the MCE urged the students to use their courses as stepping stones to higher heights.
The students who are products of the government’s free SHS policy expressed appreciation to the political leaders for the offer. They further promised to work hard and behave well both on campus and outside campus.
Royal Nursing College is located in Kumasi at Tafo Nhyiaeso. The college is affiliated with the University of Cape Coast and Royal King’s College United Kingdom.
