According to the philanthropist, the beneficiaries are students with 4.5 CGPA and above, describing the gesture as a reward for hard work.

He said the scheme will be extended to other universities in due course and urged Okun students to be focused on their academics.

Hon. Osaseyi further explained that he was invited for their programme last week and asked for names of students with 4.5 CGPA upward and about eight of them came up and so he decided to give them scholarships for the year 2023.

“The motivation is to continue to compensate our best students. We must show them that we appreciate their hard work and dedication to their education and to also give back to the society,” he said.

He advised the students to reciprocate the scholarship by excelling more in their academic pursuit and expressed his readiness to monitor their conduct.
