20 students get Anglican Church scholarship in Kwara

Date: 2019-12-20

Twenty students have benefitted from the Diocese of the Igbomina West Anglican Communion in Irepodun local government area of Kwara state in its adopt-a-child programme.

The students are in various levels of institutions, ranging from university, secondary and primary schools with the church spending several millions of naira on the scheme.

Speaking with journalists on the 10th anniversary of the diocese at Cathedral of St James, Iludun Oro, the Diocesan Bishop, Right Reverend Jide Adebayo, said the programme launched in 2016, had enabled the mission partners to adopt a child and train him or her without knowing the child.

Adebayo said that the diocese had been able to provide affordable education and to offer scholarships to indigent but brilliant students at all levels.

"Similarly, a 500-capacity multipurpose hall is being undertaken by the women organization, while a multi-million naira hostel project is going on in Ilorin, the state capital. We also established a post primary institution, named Anglican Unique College.

In conjunction with the women organization, we established a piggery, cassava plantation and processing mill, palm kernel cracker and a women charity shop," he said, adding that the proceeds from the charity shop is channeled towards providing scholarships to university students, secondary and primary school pupils.
