Good afternoon, 

Good afternoon, 

My name is Hezekiah Blessing, a student in the Department of Microbiology, Faculty of Biological sciences, Akwa Ibom State University. 

I want to express my utmost gratitude firstly to God Almighty who has been the source of my achievements. Thank you so much to the Jemitim Foundation for this incredible honor. I am truly humbled to have emerged as one of the winners of the scholarship Award for the 300level category for the 2024/2025 cycle. 

This achievement would not have been possible without the encouragement of my family and friends who stood by me every step of the way and helped me to be a better version of myself. A big thank you to everyone who has made this event a success and our University a place where dreams are nurtured. 

Once again, thank you for this incredible honor, I am truly grateful and I will cherish this moment forever. 

Thank you

Miss Blessing Hezekiah
