EndSARS: 18-year-old detainee, who gave birth in prison gets scholarship

Kemisola Ogunniyi, an 18-year-old lady, who recently gave birth in prison while being detained in connection with the October 2020 #EndSARS protest, has been offered a scholarship.

The development comes nine months after she was arrested on October 22, 2020, and subsequently remanded in prison with about two-month-old pregnancy. She gave birth in prison on June 16, and regained her freedom on July 22, after many Nigerians took to social media platforms to demand her release. Her lawyer, Tope Temokun, confirmed to PREMIUM TIMES that Ms Oguniyi has been offered a scholarship by a philanthropist, Bamidele Omosehin. Mr Omosehin, who hails from Ondo State, is the founder of Bamidele Omosehin Foundation .

He offered to place Ms Oguniyi on “scholarship for this forthcoming NECO examination, any other examination and her UTME for her to return to school. He also offered to fund her through university education,” the lawyer said.
