The Leo Stan Ekeh tech scholarship is now live, offering 1,000 slots to indigent Nigerian students in tech fields.
A major opportunity has opened for young Nigerians with a knack for technology. The Leo Stan Ekeh Foundation has officially launched its 1,000 Tech University Scholarships.
The program targets brilliant but underprivileged students who want to study Computer Science and other tech-related courses. Eligible schools include federal and state universities, as well as polytechnics across the country.
Tech mogul Leo Stan Ekeh first announced the initiative at the Enugu TechFest 2.0. He revealed that the project is his way of marking his 70th birthday. Instead of throwing a lavish party, the serial entrepreneur chose to invest directly in the nation's digital future.
The foundation is not acting alone. Heavyweights like TD Africa, Konga Group, Zinox Technologies, and Task Systems are throwing their weight behind the project.
Successful candidates will get a comprehensive package. The award covers full tuition, accommodation, and monthly stipends. But it goes beyond just money.
Beneficiaries will also receive intensive holiday training, mentorship, and industry exposure. Professionals from the Nigeria Computer Society are lined up to guide the students, ensuring they are ready for the global digital market.
Ekeh has a long history of empowering Nigerians through tech. Over the years, his businesses and philanthropic efforts have trained more than 6,700 individuals.
Organizers have assured the public that the selection process will be strictly transparent and based on merit. All qualified applicants from across the country stand an equal chance.
Interested students can apply right now. Simply visit Konga.com and click on the "1000 Tech Scholarship" banner for all application details and guidelines.
