…Gets Full Scholarship
In a now viral video, a student identified as Angel Alale, who lost her father, has been awarded a full scholarship.
Education activist and the Chief Executive Officer at Educare, Alex Onyia, shared Alale’s story via his X account, on Thursday.
He wrote, “Angel Alale has just been informed of her full scholarship. She has been crying uncontrollably.”
According to him, the news came as a life-changing opportunity for the student who faced the daunting prospect of discontinuing her education after her West African Examination Council (WAEC) exams due to the loss of her father.
