Sir,
CROSS RIVER STATE OVERSEAS SCHOLARSHIP BENEFICIARIES: UNPAID ANNUAL ALLOWANCES SINCE 2014
We write to bring to your attention our very critical condition due to the non-payment of annual allowances as stipulated in the award of overseas scholarships offered to us through the Cross River State Scholarship Board during the Senator Liyel Imoke led administration.
Our allowances were last paid in 2014.
The non-payment of allowances has caused untold hardships; inability to pay fees, hostel accommodation and general upkeep.
The BVN registration, restrictions on ATM cards as well the falling value of the naira; have all contributed to worsening our conditions abroad. Our academics have been adversely affected.
We are appealing for speedy response to our plight. Thanks in anticipation.
Yours Faithfully,
SIGNED:
