HISTORY AS SMART RECTOR INAUGURATES JPI SCHOLARSHIP SCHEME
Smart Rector of Federal Polytechnic Nekede, Engr. Dr. M.C. Arimanwa FNSE, will this Friday, March 18th, 2022, inaugurate the JPI Scholarship Fund, a product of the numerous strategic collaborations he has initiated.
The event which would be held at the 1000-capacity auditorium promises to be a watershed in the targeted collaborative and developmental efforts of the Rector aimed at taking the institution to greater heights.
It also underpins the great commitment the Rector has towards the welfare and academic performance of students of the Federal Polytechnic, who are the main beneficiaries of the noble gesture.
The President of the JPI Group, Jamie Pajoel, in a chat with FEDPONEK GAZETTE, hints that the partnership with the polytechnic in establishing a rolling scholarship scheme, is a way of complementing the gigantic efforts of the Rector in infrastructural and technological development of the school.
He also posits that the scholarship fund would begin from his former department, Business Administration and Management, promising to spread it to other departments in due course.
According to a flier released to that effect, the scholarship will cover the annual tuition and cost of academic materials of a beneficiary. The flier also reveals that the best students in ND I, ND II, HND I and HND II of the Department of Business Administration and Management would benefit from it every year.
FEDPONEK GAZETTE observes that this is the first time an alumnus of the polytechnic is giving back to his almamater in this magnitude.
The medium projects that the JPI initiative can inspire other alumni of the institution to give back to the polytechnic by setting up scholarship funds.
