The six junior secondary school students who the President’s School Debate have had a nice moment with the Kwara State Governor, AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq.
The students didn’t just sit and dine with the governor, they also went home with a scholarship award and a cash prize of N500,000 each.
Speaking while hosting the students in his office in Ilorin, Abdulrazaq assured that the scholarship awarded to the students would be continued by his successor.
