by crossriverwatch admin

Professor Ben Ayade, the Senator representing the Northern Senatorial District of Cross River State has approved the payment of West African Examination Council (WAEC) registration fees for 300 students in both public and private schools in his Senatorial District.

Senator Ayade, who spoke through his Personal Assistant, Dr Stephen Odey said his decision to provide the free registration for that large number of students is based on the importance of education in the development of a nation and his compassion for the less privileged in our society which accounts for his regular award of scholarship and other educational assistance.

In the statement made available to CrossRiverWatch, the Senator called on schools in the senatorial district both public and private to select two best students in their schools based on the Mock Examination results of their schools to benefit from the free registration exercise.
