The Late Engr. J. U. Akueme Family Releases List of Bursary Beneficiaries from St. Joseph Nursery and Primary School, Ukana
The family of the late Engr. John Udenna Akueme (J. U. Akueme) has officially released the list of successful beneficiaries selected under the J. U. Akueme Memorial Project, an initiative established to honour the enduring legacy of their late father through meaningful investments in education and community development.
The memorial project was launched with a series of outreach visits to schools across Ukana, where educational materials were distributed to pupils as part of the family’s commitment to supporting learning and encouraging academic excellence. As the project progressed, the family identified deserving pupils from St. Joseph Nursery and Primary School, Ukana, who have now been selected to receive full payment of their school fees for the upcoming academic term.
According to the Akueme family, the bursary awards will be formally presented during the Maurice Akueme Foundation Bursary and Awards Ceremony 2026. The event is designed not only to celebrate the beneficiaries but also to inspire young learners to pursue excellence in their education while preserving the values of hard work, integrity, and service exemplified by the late Engr. Akueme.
Parents and guardians of all selected beneficiaries are kindly requested to attend the presentation ceremony with their children to receive the bursary awards.
