Awwalu Salisu, Kano Keke Rider, Gets ₦250M Scholarship by SoNature(op): 3:23pm On Mar 05, 2024
In what looked like a competitive gesture, the 23-year-old Kano-based commercial Tricyclist, Awwalu Salisu, who returned a cash of N15million left in his tricycle by a Chadian businessman in 2023, has been offered a scholarship upto PhD level of education to the tune of N250million.

Awwalu was celebrated by LEADERSHIP Media Group on Tuesday at its annual conference and awards ceremony as the winner of its Outstanding Young Person of the Year 2023’ Award due to his rare act of honesty.

A fellow awardee and presidential candidate of the Labour Party (LP), Peter Obi, who was honoured as the LEADERSHIP Politician of the Year 2023, was the first to offer Awwalu scholarship at the Abuja-based Baze University up to PhD level.

Thereafter, Niger State governor and co- winner of LEADERSHIP Governor of the Year Award, Mohammed Umar Bago, jocularly reacted by saying Labour Party cannot be allowed to outshine the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC).

Bago consequently announced a N250m scholarship award to Awwalu to appreciate his act of honesty and to encourage other young Nigerians to imbibe the virtue.

He said Awwalu will get N50m scholarship each from him personally, President Bola Tinubu, his Ministers, APC Governors Forum and Niger State government.

Awwalu Salisu, you are an inspiration to all of us! Congratulations!

Just attend Baze University up to PhD level and collect the cash of 250 million from Gov. Mohammed Umar Bago.

In the words of Evangelist Ebuka Obi, your yoke is broken! 👍👍👍👍

Imagine what a governor said. Na wa!

So if LP didn’t outshine APC at the event, obviously APC wouldn’t have known what to do as usual.

Good home training will always prevail.

On a day some criminals went to loot and rob the warehouse of a private business and their criminal supporters were attempting to defend the criminals, in same Northern Nigeria, this upright young patriotic Nigerian returned a missing N15 million he found misplaced in his keke.

God bless every responsible parent raising young Nigerians like this young man.

He's not interested in school. So go ahead and establish a multimillion naira farm for him, and let him take it from there.

He is the best man to handle this country at this time

If he used the education to develop himself he can earn the 250M within a weak. Especially if he venture into biotech or tech research

If Peter Obi hadn't given him the scholarship, it means the Niger state governor wouldn't have bothered assisting Awwalu Salisu.

Too Bad, For An Eye Service

And to the young man, congratulations.

Many miserable souls here will be pained that Obi made the first move.
