Senator Ned Nwoko has unveiled a groundbreaking education and sports empowerment scheme, awarding full four-year scholarships to 90 exceptional students from Delta North to study at the Sports University of Nigeria, Idumuje-Ugboko.
Under the initiative, ten students from each of the nine local government areas will enjoy 100% tuition-free education, professional sports training in world-class facilities, and access to modern campus amenities including uninterrupted power supply, high-speed internet, secure accommodation, and state-of-the-art sports complexes.
“This is not just financial assistance; it’s an investment in a generation that will marry academic excellence with athletic brilliance,” Nwoko said. “We are producing ambassadors who will make Delta North and Nigeria proud.”
The Sports University, the first of its kind in Sub-Saharan Africa, offers accredited programmes across Mass Communication, Management and Social Sciences, Sports Science, Allied Health Sciences, Sciences, and Architecture.
Applicants must demonstrate strong academic performance and proven talent in at least one sport. The inaugural beneficiaries will commence studies in the upcoming academic session.
