Enugu State Governor, Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi, has approved the release of N24.6 million to the Enugu State Scholarship and Education Loans Board (ESSELB) for bursary allowance for students.

While disclosing this in a statement on Sunday July 19, 2020, the Executive Secretary of ESSELB, Mr Levis Abonyi, said that the beneficiaries were 246 students of the state origin at the Nigerian Law School.

Abonyi stated that the benefiting students would get the sum of N100,000 each.

He added that those eligible for the offer must be indigenes of the state in the Nigerian Law School.

According to the ESSELB executive secretary, the requirements for the prospective beneficiaries include valid admission letters and valid Law School identity card.

Other requirements, according to him, are local government identification letters, duly signed by the scholarship board staff in their respective council secretariats and recent passport photographs.

Abonyi, however, asked the affected candidates to call the help-lines:09044022730 or visit the board’s office at No. 28, Okpara Avenue (old CCB building near EEDC), for application voucher.‎

The executive secretary also urged eligible students to upload all the above-required documents to the ESSELB portal.
