Over two thousand credibly qualified undergraduate, diploma and NCE students cut across Fufore and Song local government areas, offering different courses in different tertiary institutions benefitted from what can best be considered as Boya’s education empowerment by means of scholarship.

Farmers were not left out in the Boya constituency intervention; 1,200 bags of fertilizer water pump machines for irrigation and other farming tools were distributed to farmers.
The lawmaker lamented that such interventions become necessary because the country and the citizenry are under trying period, where he hoped that the challenges, temporary in nature, would be surmounted.
Parliament has three functions: representing the electorate, making laws and overseeing the government via hearings and inquiries; the parliamentarian has assured the constituents Sunday, at hi s Yola residence, during the distribution that his focus on bringing dividends of democracy by initiating and sponsoring constituency, state and general purpose Bill would be unrelenting as much as the empowerment initiatives.
He said: “As long as I remain a Lawmaker, you will keep on seeing this gesture and I assure you more is coming soon.” He said
The beneficiaries were also given transport fares to and from, according to their respective destinations.
The constituents commended Hon Boya for being there just at the point hopes were lost.
“It’s not surprising, he’s tested, tastes good, hence trusted; the gesture isn’t his first time, it’s a continued one.
“We’re indeed a lucky constituency this time around with Rep Boya; a departure from the previous representational experience, he knows how to scratch itchy portion the most.
