Candidates who scored over 300 in the just- concluded Joint Admission and Matriculation Board (JAMB) examination have been rewarded by Adams College Oshodi.
15 of the candidates from the college were treated to a lavish party in Lagos at the weekend.
Proprietor of the college, Adams Adebola, said students with such spectacular performances deserve commendation from government and society.
He said the college will provide scholarship opportunities for the distinguished students.
“So we are going to discuss with their parents on how we can support them by funding the academic programmes they have chosen to pursue,” Adebola stressed.
He said the college doesn’t just teach but mentor. “We don’t just teach but mentor them that is why in 2016, 186 of our students matriculated in UNILAG.
“We follow them up. Like those who we are celebrating this year, their awards will be presented to them by former Adams college students who have done well with themselves.
“We have the best graduating student in UNILAG in 2012 and even the best graduating student in UNILAG in 2017 Oyindamola was mentored by us.”
Adebola pointed out the candidates were subjected to 9-month intensive lectures for the examination.
The candidate with the highest score of 339, Patrick Delight, said the examination was very easy for him.
