The Senator representing Kwara Central Senatorial District, Dr. Yahaya Ibrahim Oloriegbe has paid the tuition, accommodation fees and miscellaneous expenses of the three most outstanding Fellows of the 2020 Countryside Emerging Leaders Fellowship (CELF). This in fulfilment of the Kwara Central earlier pledged that he would be sponsoring 3 outstanding fellows from his constituency.




This development was contained in a statement issued in Ilorin and made available to our medium by the CELF press Secretary, Saadudeen Abdulrasheed.

The statement reads;

The convener of CELF, Mr. Lawal Olohungbebe, on behalf of the Haashim Initiative for Community Advancement (HICA), Hannis Institute for Development Studies (HIDS) and other partners, noted that Senator Oloriegbe, in fulfillment of the scholarship awarded to the three Fellows who are from his senatorial district, released funds for the payment of all the expenses incurred by the beneficiaries for 2020/2021 academic session.

Mr. Olohungbebe on his part, described the gesture of the senator as capable of having a far-reaching impact on empowering young people from rural areas, adding that  the scholarships would afford the beneficiaries the opportunity to study courses of their choices in public institutions of higher learning. 

While thanking the Senator for his support towards grassroots development, Olohungbebe also assured him that the funds would be judiciously used for the purpose which it was meant for.
