As a 400-level student of Public Health at Baze University, I have come to understand that the health of a nation is built long before anyone reaches a hospital: in clean water, in informed families and in communities that understand prevention. I wanted to prepare for that work before graduation, not after it. The President’s Scholarship under EFFS made that possible, granting full coverage for a professional programme that stands beside my degree and sharpens it. To be entrusted with this award while still a student is an honour I hold with gratitude and with resolve. I intend to repay it in the communities I will one day serve.
