The Peace in South East Project (PISE-P) and the Benjamin Kalu Foundation (BKF) have launched an initiative to support 5,000 Abia students who will take the Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) conducted by the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB).
The special programme will cover the registration fees for the students drawn from 17 local government areas of the state.
The chief press secretary to the deputy speaker, Levinus Nwabughiogu, in a statement, said the application period runs from February 2 to 28, 2026.

Unveiled in December 2023, PISE-P is an initiative of Kalu aimed at enhancing the region’s security and promoting peace through non-kinetic means.
