A year 10 pupil of Greensprings School, Zanita Akinkugbe, has been accepted as one of the scholars of this year’s Yale Young African Scholars programme, after a highly competitive application process.
Applications were received from thousands of students across Africa, and only successful applicants who met the stipulated standards were contacted. Combining all these with my school work was a bit challenging, but I am happy that I was able to manage my time very well to come up with an application that was loved by the organisers of the programme. Now that I have been accepted, I look forward to improving my leadership skills and meeting fellow scholars from other African countries,” she concluded.
