While receiving the scholarship awards, Abimbola Akinbiyi, one of the beneficiaries in the 2023 edition expressed her happiness to have emerged one of the awardees. She commended Egbin Power Plc for creating the scholarship programme in order to encourage students to give their best in education.

Ridwanullahi Sharafa, who also emerged an awardee praised the Genco, the management and staff for creating the platforms to support students with the scholarship.

Principal, Powerfields Group of Schools (College), Mrs. Folahanmi Adesina said: “Egbin Power Plc deserves commendation for discovering brains and talents from the community through the scholarship platform. I also want to applaud the management and staff of Egbin for their unwavering support to the beneficiaries over the years, while also promoting the school as a brand.” She urged the students to continue to do their best in their education.

In her remarks, head teacher, Powerfield Group of Schools (Elementary), Olufunke Winful, commended Egbin for investing in the future of the students and for putting smiles to faces of the teachers and parents. “We remain committed to guiding the students, monitoring them and ensuring that they excel in their academic and other aspect of life,” she said.
