In a commendable move towards promoting education and supporting less-privileged students in Kogi State, the Nigerians Unite for Tinubu/Shettima (NUFTS) has recently procured about 1,200 Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) forms for students in the three senatorial districts of the state.
Through its “RTA JAMB Support” initiative, NUFTS aimed to alleviate the financial burden faced by students who aspire to pursue higher education but lack the necessary resources to do so.
The group has distributed the JAMB forms, which will assist less-privileged students in gaining admission into higher institutions in the state.
The RTA Coordinator for Yagba West Local Government Area, who is also a member of NUFTS, expressed appreciation to Dr. Ramatu Tijjani Aliyu, the Honorable Minister of State, Federal Capital Territory (FCT), for supporting the initiative.
The coordinator noted that the JAMB forms were timely, considering the economic challenges faced by many families in the state.
NUFTS has called on well-meaning individuals and organizations to support the initiative and contribute to the development of education in Kogi State and Nigeria as a whole.
The procurement and distribution of JAMB forms by NUFTS are considered as a laudable initiative that will help promote education and reduce the financial burden faced by less-privileged students in Kogi State.
The forms were distributed as follows: 400 forms for students in Kogi West senatorial district, 400 for students in Kogi East, and 400 forms for students in Kogi Central senatorial district. This will provide an opportunity for students from all districts to benefit from the initiative.
Education is a fundamental right that should be accessible to all individuals, regardless of their socio-economic status. Initiatives like the “RTA JAMB Support” by NUFTS are crucial to promoting education and supporting less-privileged students in Kogi State. It is hoped that more individuals and organizations will emulate this gesture and contribute to the development of education in the state and the country at large.
