Adamu said the present generation in FCT was coming up strong with hearty knowledge in different academic fields.
However, she called on the FCT Senator, Philip Aduda and the Kuje Area Council Administration, to strengthen and revitalize the scholarship scheme to help students from poor homes in FCT to advance in education.
Meanwhile, the Chairman of Kuje Area Council, FCT, Abdullahi Sabo, also appealed to the Vice-Chancellor, University of Abuja, Abdul-Rasheed Na’allah, to consider the indigenes of FCT during admissions and employment opportunities in the institution.
Sabo lamented that the institution is supposed to be a catchment area for the indigenes of FCT who unfortunately found it difficult to gain admission even when they have earned the required scores.
According to him, employment was another area of concern, even as he alleged that the natives were denied employment.
“Talatu Adamu is the best graduating student of the University of Abuja 2019, a little girl from a remote part of Kuje, has proved that dedication and hard work leads to success irrespective of class.
“As an appreciation to promote education and learning, the present administration of Kuje Area Council is offering our dear Talatu Adamu, an automatic scholarship to any university of her choice to study for a Master’s degree.
“I want yo use this medium to appeal to the new VC to consider our plight and give recognition to our children during admission process and employment when the need arises,” he said.
