In a bold and visionary move, the Presidential Amnesty Programme (PAP) has thrown open the doors of opportunity once again; officially announcing the 2025/2026 Onshore Scholarship Awards for undergraduate and postgraduate studies in Nigerian tertiary institutions.
At the helm of this renewed academic revolution is none other than the indefatigable Chief (Dr.) Dennis Brutu Otuaro, the PAP Administrator, whose leadership continues to rewrite the narrative of empowerment in the Niger Delta.
With the launch of the online scholarship portal, thousands of bright minds from the creeks to the classrooms now have the chance to transform their dreams into reality; thanks to a leader who sees education as the most powerful weapon for peace, prosperity, and progress.
“We are not just awarding scholarships; we are investing in futures, in talents, in a region that has long deserved more,” Dr. Otuaro affirmed in a recent statement.
His tenure has been defined by clarity of purpose, transparency, and above all, an unwavering commitment to human capital development. Unlike past dispensations distracted by politics and patronage, Dr. Otuaro has remained focused on the core mission: rehabilitate, reintegrate, and educate.
From Port Harcourt to Patani, and from Gbaramatu to Bonny Island, the reactions have been thunderous; “Otuaro dey work!” chants echo from grateful youths who now see a future within reach.
The application portal, now live on the official PAP website, is open to eligible candidates from the region who seek to pursue their academic ambitions in Nigeria’s public or private universities and polytechnics.
This is not just a scholarship call; it’s a clarion call to rebuild the region through knowledge. And once again, Dr. Dennis Otuaro is leading from the front.
