Sen. Ireti Kingibe (LP-FCT) has provided 2000 Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board(JAMB), forms for distribution to indigent students in the territory.

Ms Ireti said this when she spoke with journalists on Saturday in Abuja.

“The free forms are meant for students who cannot afford them, irrespective of their tribes, religions, party affiliation and so on.

“I urge potential beneficiaries to study hard and ensure good conduct not just in the examination hall alone but also when admitted into the university,”she said.

Ms Ireti re-affirmed her readiness to provide more interventions in the education sector in the FCT.

She added that such interventions were part of her Impact Development Programmes(IDP), for her constituency, Abuja.
