Hon. Adamu Aliyu, PhD, the member representing Jos North-North Constituency in the Plateau State House of Assembly, has once again demonstrated his commitment to education and youth empowerment by distributing 200 free NECO examination forms to less privileged students in his constituency.
This latest gesture, announced today, builds on the lawmaker’s consistent efforts to support educational access among indigent students. NECO (National Examinations Council) forms are essential for senior secondary students to sit for the Senior Secondary Certificate Examination (SSCE), a key requirement for university admission and further opportunities in Nigeria.
Hon. Adamu has been recognized for prioritizing education, youth development, and community welfare in Jos North-North. His initiatives, including previous sponsorships for examinations like JAMB and other empowerment programs, reflect a dedication to uplifting vulnerable groups and securing brighter futures for young people facing financial barriers.
This distribution is expected to benefit dozens of deserving candidates who might otherwise be unable to register for the crucial exam due to economic challenges. Constituents and education stakeholders have commended the move as a timely intervention amid rising costs and hardships.
Hon. Aliyu’s actions continue to highlight the role of responsive representation in addressing grassroots needs, particularly in education—a sector vital for long-term development in Plateau State and beyond. Such philanthropy inspires hope and encourages other leaders to invest in human capital for sustainable progress.
