The Chairman, Taraba State Scholarship Board, Alhaji Hassan Bappa, on Tuesday said arrangements are ongoing for the smooth payment of the 2020/2021 bursary allowance to students of the State.
Bappa who disclosed this in a chat with journalists in his office said the payment is expected to commence by the end of the month.
He noted that a technical committee has been set up to update the data of the students for onward payment of their bursaries, adding that the committee is expected to submit its report within the week.
According to him, many students have graduated and new sets have been enrolled, so, "we need to update the data to get eligible beneficiaries before we can commence payment."
“The Governor is passionate about education and have given approval to release the monies in tranches for the payment of the students’ scholarship allowances."
