By Noah Ocheni, Lokoja

No fewer than 10,465 students from Kogi State have applied for the 2025 bursary award initiated by the Senator Sunday Steve Karimi Education Foundation in collaboration with the Tinubu Support Group.

According to a statement by the Central Committee of the programme, registration opened on August 1 and closed on August 31, 2025. The committee noted that the next stage would involve sorting and screening, after which 3,000 successful applicants will be selected, in line with Senator Karimi’s earlier pledge to support Kogi indigenes in public tertiary institutions nationwide.

The committee assured applicants of a transparent process, stressing that the names of successful candidates would be published soon. It also encouraged applicants to follow the DSSK Media Team for updates, reaffirming Senator Karimi’s commitment to equity and accountability.

The Foundation had earlier announced that 1,390 students from Kogi West Senatorial District will benefit from the bursary, while 1,000 from Kogi East and 610 from Kogi Central will receive support under the Tinubu Support Group Bursary Award.
