Okai Laryea's Educational Foundation grants scholarship to exceptional student pursuing law at UG

The Educational Foundation led by Emmanuel Nii Okai Laryea, an aspiring National Democratic Congress (NDC) Parliamentary candidate in the Odododiodioo constituency, has extended a scholarship to Nii Larkotey Otoo, supporting his four-year tertiary education at the University of Ghana (Legon).

Nii Larkotey Otoo, who excelled in his WASSCE with an impressive eight As while pursuing General Arts at Presec-Legon, has been admitted to the University of Ghana to study Law.

In a media interview, Nii Okai Laryea emphasized the commitment of his foundation, known as the I-RISE Fund or Shiatse Educational Support, to ensuring that Nii Otoo receives top-notch education during his tertiary studies.

"Larkotey is a proper Jamestown boy within the constituency, and it’s only right that if you look at the grades that he was able to make, it is right that we support him immediately. The fund is to support needy but brilliant students, so I believe that it’s a step in the right direction to support him. The fund will support him with his tuition for the four years, and the fund will also mobilize funds to support him with his accommodation on campus," Nii Okai Laryea explained.

Furthermore, Emmanuel Nii Okai Laryea highlighted that his foundation is dedicated to encouraging the youth in the constituency to prioritize education.

"We will first of all encourage them that this is worthy of emulating, and we will also put in a conscious effort to ensure that we get children in Odododiodioo to be able to achieve high heights in education," he added.

Expressing his gratitude, Nii Larkotey Otoo conveyed his excitement for the generous gesture.
