Speaking at the ceremony, the Chair of the Board, Gerard Ibhawoh stated that the objective of the scholarship was to engage university students in discussions about community development and other pressing national issues.

He further stated that the prize money was meant to augment the cost of tertiary education thereby making higher education more accessible to the youths. He urged the awardees to make good use of the funds while remaining focused on their academic pursuits.
