INTELS offers scholarship, jobs to 66 physically challenged persons

Oil and gas logistics giant INTELS Nigeria Limited has taken its community support a notch higher by offering full scholarships to no fewer than 66 physically challenged persons.

The scholarship scheme, which was set up in 2003 to assist persons with physical disabilities including polio, covers primary, secondary and tertiary education.

Some of the beneficiaries enjoyed the scholarship from primary school through to tertiary education, attaining professional qualifications in various fields of endeavours, including Economics and Law, among others.

The beneficiaries also have the opportunity of working at INTELS after completing their education.

One of the beneficiaries, Uchechukwu Nwafor, who is an Economics graduate of the University of Port Harcourt, said: “words cannot capture the good works INTELS is doing.

“INTELS has changed my life for good. What INTELS is doing cannot be quantified. The company has been able to make me achieve the desires of my heart. They have empowered me and made me independent. Thanks to INTELS I am not on the road begging for money or food to eat. No company in Nigeria has ever done what INTELS has done for the physically challenged.
