“As we have negotiated in the past, we are not unaware of bursary’s screening currently ongoing for all registered Kogi students across the country.
“We are pleading with your Excellency that the screening should be completed and the bursary should be paid in earnest before the November 16 governorship election.
“The screening should be completed as soon as possible so that Kogi students can smile to the election and fully endorse your Excellency.
