The scholarship targets learners admitted to national and extra-county schools with the MP committing to pay their full school fees.

Under the arrangement, parents and guardians will only be required to provide personal effects and shopping for the students while the MP fully caters for tuition fees.
Kalasinga noted that this shared responsibility ensures families remain actively involved in their children’s education as he eases the biggest financial burden.
“These are now my children,” Kalasinga said, adding that all beneficiaries have been placed under his scholarship program until they complete their education.
