Emmanuel, an ND I student of Public Administration who has paralysis affecting both legs, also received a brand-new wheelchair donated by Nwaguma Chikwado, operator of a business centre at the Polytechnic and Head of Vasco Communication.
The presentation was made during a visit to the Rector on Thursday, November 12, 2026.
Receiving Chikwado, the Rector commended him for his compassion and willingness to support the student, describing the gesture as an expression of the teachings of Jesus Christ.
He noted that the donation also aligned with the people-centred agenda of the Abia State Government under Governor Alex Otti.
Okoro further announced that the Polytechnic would take responsibility for Emmanuel’s tuition fees until he completes his HND programme.
The Rector prayed for God’s continued blessings upon the donor and encouraged Emmanuel to remain focused, committed and diligent in his academic pursuits.
