Minister for Education and Member of Parliament for Tamale South, Haruna Iddrisu, has pledged to take over the educational sponsorship of 47 medical students previously supported by the late Tamale Central MP and Minister for Environment, Dr. Ibrahim Murtala Muhammed.
Mr. Iddrisu made the commitment on Tuesday, August 12, after the students paid tribute to Dr. Murtala during the Third Day Funeral Rites (Adua) in Tamale.
The students described the late MP as a dedicated leader who consistently prioritised education and the welfare of young people.
