He said the governor has ordered the removal of tax clearance as a requirement for accessing scholarship.

Ibrahim also said although the writing of essays is still a requirement to access scholarship, it is however done “to determine areas of students’ weakness that require support”.

He said Sani has also created seven scholarship awards zonal units to make it easier for students in rural areas to be screened, easing the burden of coming to the board’s headquarters in Kaduna.

The units are Zaria, Kafanchan, Kachia, Pambegua, Makarfi, Kaduna-north and Kaduna south zones.

He said the governor has provided 30 computers to the various units to simplify the application process.

He also said the board now conducts on-the-spot scholarships for indigenous citizens across tertiary institutions, adding that this effort has “enlisted over 4330 potential beneficiaries awaiting disbursement”.

“A total of 3,397 students have been awarded local scholarships from May 2023 to date. Thirty students have benefitted from the third-party tertiary education loans,” he said.

“The board has also secured 50 scholarships for secondary school students, in collaboration with the ministry of education, for indigent students from the Indomie Noodles DOFIL Company Kaduna.
