Students from Dadab awarded scholarship.
Dadab (Bar-kulan):-About 30 Somali students who completed their high school students in Kenya’s Dadab refugee camp have been awarded scholarships by Canadian Non-Governmental Organizations.
An association made of a group of Canadian social societies have examined these students by interviewing them and selected 29 Somali students from Dadab and one Sudanese from Kakuma refugee camp.
Among the students who were interviewed are those who completed the Kenyan secondary school as far as in 2006 all that time waiting for an opportunity to peruse higher education to come. Ahmed Nageye is one such students and he says he will pursue a medical course when he goes to Canada for his bachelor degree studies.
However there are only six girls who are among those who have been awarded the scholarship and the beneficiaries will travel to Canada on June this year to start their studies in different Canadian Universities enrolling into various faculties.
Refugee students in Dadab camps do study under difficult conditions from a harsh natural weather phenomenon to lack of basic learning facilities like exercise books.
There are more than 3,000 students enrolled in the three secondary schools in the 3 Dadab refugee camps which are home to hundreds of Somali refugees fleeing the violence in their war-torn country.
