Two PDN classes have decided each to sponsor one boy and one girl throughout their secondary school education. Mustafa Alassane, currently attending Yardaje Government Junior Secondary School, was the first boy recipient of the ABCD scholarship; Naja’atu Shehu, currently attending Shargale Junior Secondary School is the first girl recipient. More recently, Mustapha Siraja and Shema’u Salisu were selected and are now being sponsored by PDN through the completion of their secondary school education.
