Scholarship: Zulum Releases N5m For 13-Year Boy Who Copy-Designed Borno Flyover

The Borno State Governor, Professor Babagana Umara Zulum has approved a cheque of N5 million to be presented to a private school to fund a scholarship for Musa Sani, a 13-year-old talented Borno kid who used mud to replicate the state’s first flyover around the customs round-about in Maiduguri.

According to a statement signed by the Governor’s spokesman, Malam Isa Gusau, on Monday, a copy made available to pressmen disclosed that Musa was born into a less privileged family living around Gwange area in Maiduguri.

However, the payment was made to Golden Olive Academy, Maiduguri, to cater for Musa’s education from primary four to completion of Senior Secondary School.

Gov.Zulumsaid he was a primary three pupil at a Community school in Gwange.

It will be recalled that ‘’Musa recently caught Zulum’s attention when he used mud to design a flyover that was commissioned by President Muhammadu Buhari in Maiduguri, back in December,’’ the statement said.
