The scholarship for the best graduating student was made known during a chat with the university by the chairman of the Coronation Capital and Founder of Aig-Imokhuede Foundation, Mr Aigboje Aig-Imokhuede on Wednesday last week.

This was also followed  immediately with a letter addressed to the recipient by the Access Bank’s Head of HR Operations, Mr Olakunle Olashore, admitting her for internship with the bank for a period of one year under a mouth-watering salary package.
