Presenting the award, Group Managing Director of BIPC, Barr. Alex Adum, who pointed out that the award was purely out of merit, noted that it would aid her educational pursuit temporarily truncated by lack of fund.


Barr. Adum who stressed the need to handsomely reward sterling academic feats instead of the overt focus on persons in the

entertainment industry alone, called on stakeholders to commit more resources to reward outstanding academic performances.


First Lady of Benue State and Founder of ESLF, Eunice Ortom, congratulated the awardee and urged other girls to emulate her remarkable achievement.


Receiving the award, Joy expressed joy and profound gratitude to BIPC and ESLF for their kind gesture which, she said would help nurture her dream to reality.

Although she graduated with an excellent WAEC result, Joy was unable to register for the Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) for lack of fund.


Currently the 16-year-old teaches at a nursery and primary school at Otukpo where she had tried to save money to pursue her studies.
