Talented teen gets N5m scholarship from Zulum

For using mud to replicate the first flyover at the Customs Roundabout in Borno State, 13-year-old Musa Sani has received N5 million from Governor Babagana Zulum for his education at the Golden Olive Academy in Maiduguri.

The money is expected to see the Basic 3 pupil through secondary school at the academy.

Presenting the cheque, yesterday, in Maiduguri, the governor disclosed: “This primary three pupil from Gwange community caught my attention when he used mud to design the Customs Roundabout Flyover.”

President Muhammadu Buhari commissioned the bridge in December 2021.

Zulum met the child’s family and offered a scholarship for their son to complete his secondary education and to harness his talents.
