Parents of students at PAMO University of Medical Sciences have staged a street protest over the reported cancellation of the scholarship programme supporting their children’s education.
The protesters, operating under the banner of PAMO Concerned Parents – 2026/2027 Set, called on the Rivers State House of Assembly to intervene and secure the reinstatement of the scholarship scheme.
Displaying placards and banners bearing the message, “Please Reinstate Our Children’s Scholarship,” the parents appealed to the relevant authorities to reconsider the decision, insisting that their children should not be denied the opportunity to pursue their education.

The parents expressed concern that the reported cancellation could disrupt their children’s academic programmes and impose additional financial pressure on affected families.
They specifically urged the Rivers State House of Assembly to listen to their grievances and facilitate a resolution that would restore the scholarship arrangement.
The protesters also appealed to the Rivers State Government and other relevant stakeholders to intervene urgently to prevent the reported withdrawal of the educational support from affecting the students’ academic future.
