Kidnapped Bethel Baptist students get full scholarship

Date:

From Femi Oyelola in Kaduna

The Senator representing Kaduna South Senatorial District, Sunday Marshall Katung, has offered full scholarships to 5 students of Bethel Baptist High School who were among the students abducted by bandits in the school in 2021.

The abducted students regained their freedom and subsequently graduated from the school, except the 5 students who had yet to complete their studies in the school.

However, Senator Katung granted the scholarship to the students during a fundraising program organized by the Kaduna Baptist Conference for the rebuilding of the Bethel Baptist High School in Kaduna.

The Senator pledged to undertake the payment of the student’s tuition fees from secondary school up to the university level.
