Obiano's Challenger in 2017, Engr Bart Nwibe foundation, Ugo Igboukwu Foundation Scholarship Scheme recieves commendation from Anambra Teacher's Forum for sponsoring 10,000 students

www.odogwublog.com reports that Anambra state Teachers' Forum has commended Ugo Igboukwu Foundation's sustained Education scholarship program which has seen over 10,000 students across Anambra state assisted through school in the last 15 years.
The forum described the gesture of training people unconditionally as a most noble act of altruism deserving every encouragement. They recognized that aside his scholarship schemes , he runs an adult education program at free of charge.
The forum, which consists of practicing professional teachers from various parts of Anambra state gave this approval during a courtesy call paid Engr Bart Nwibe, Ugo Igboukwu, the Director of the foundation.

The chairman of the Teachers' Forum who lead the 15-man delegation, Comrade Peter Ezekwe, in his speech, shared how the activities of Ugo Igboukwu Foundation has kept alive the dreams of countless bright children and youths from indigent homes in the state.

"Engr Bart Nwibe may not fathom the gravity of good he is doing in this state with his educational empowerment programs, but I stand here to say that there is no philanthropy greater that educational empowerment as it is the best way of doing the proverbial " teaching how to fish", as removed from the conventional hand-outs that most well-to-do but misdirected persons do these days," Ezekwe enthused.

While welcoming the group, Engr Bart Nwibe appreciated their words of encouragement saying it had gone a long way to confirm his long held belief in his cause, which he described as "building an Anambra of our dreams through good education."

Nwibe also observed that education gives equal opportunity to everyone to attain any desired height in life, saying that the lackadaisical attitude of firms, government towards education says a lot about how ill-informed the society is as to the high potentials education holds as a panacea for socioeconomic transformation.

Engr. Bart, in the same vein, explained that his foundation, which has run for 15 years already with not less than 10000 young people from across Anambra state as beneficiaries, besides giving full scholarship to children who show a degree of academic brilliance, also runs an adult education program to empower adults with literacy skills.
