LOCATION: Nigeria
The scholarship program enables African students to study in an African country other than their home country and, in this way, immerse themselves in the richness and diversity that the country and its communities have to offer. By broadening access to education, they see the expansion of openness to ideas and the creation of a network of like-minded leaders who will help promote the performance and tangible progress of our continent. There is no doubt that a more integrated African economy on a global scale will accelerate growth, generate positive outcomes, and benefit all its communities.
