200 benefit from NDDC’s foreign scholarship scheme

The Niger Delta Development Commission (NDDC) has awarded foreign postgraduate scholarships to 200 successful candidates under its 2025 scholarship programme.
The Director, Corporate Affairs, Mrs Seledi Thompson-Wakama said in a statement that the Managing Director, Dr Samuel Ogbuku, presented the award letters to the beneficiaries at a brief ceremony on Thursday in Port Harcourt.
She said that the beneficiaries were selected through a rigorous and transparent qualification process that was devoid of political interference or external influence.
The director said that the 200 candidates were successful in both the computer-based test and oral interview before being awarded the scholarships.
Thompson-Wakama said that the NDDC managing director was happy with panelists for their impartiality and neutrality during the selection process.
“I commend our panellists for their dedication and impartiality in raising the bar. This has ensured that only the most qualified candidates got selected.
“I urge the beneficiaries to steer clear criminal activities or any conduct that can bring disrepute to the country,” the statement quoted the managing director as saying.
The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) gathered that no fewer than 30,000 candidates applied for the scholarship scheme, with about 6,000 qualifying through the computer-based test stage.(NAN)
