Disclose beneficiaries of foreign scholarship programme – PDP to Ebonyi Govt

The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Ebonyi State has called for full disclosure of financial details and beneficiaries of the state government's foreign and local postgraduate scholarship programme. This demand comes after another batch of scholarship beneficiaries departed for the United Kingdom. PDP spokesman, Chief Emmanuel Igwe, argues that while the initiative can contribute to human-capital development, it should be subjected to full public scrutiny as it is funded with taxpayers' money.

Igwe requests the government to publish the names of beneficiaries, their universities, courses of study, tuition fees, accommodation costs, allowances, and the total amount paid for each student. He also questions the widely circulated financial figures surrounding the programme, demanding a comprehensive breakdown.
