Prince Emre Maghoh, President of the Nigerian Community in Turkey, has launched a funding initiative to cover Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) registration fees for students across Northern Nigeria. The initiative, spearheaded by Maghoh’s Sky Hope Foundation, commenced in Kano and aims to support 100 students in each of the 19 northern states.

Prince Maghoh, a Nigerian of Igbo descent who grew up in Kano before relocating to Turkey, leads the Nigerian Community in Turkey and founded the Sky Hope Foundation. This organization is driving efforts to ease the financial burdens of JAMB registration for underprivileged students in the region.
Speaking at the flag-off ceremony, Aminu Umar, the National Secretary of Northern Nigeria Youths for Progress, expressed gratitude on behalf of the beneficiaries.
“This selfless act has brought hope and relief to numerous young people in our region who were struggling to secure their future due to financial constraints. Sky Hope Foundation’s intervention has not only alleviated the burden of JAMB registration fees but has also demonstrated their commitment to empowering northern Nigerian youths,” he said.

Umar highlighted the transformative impact of the foundation’s initiative on education and development in Northern Nigeria. He noted that the program would inspire positive change and create opportunities for deserving students to pursue tertiary education.
He called on other organizations and individuals to emulate the efforts of Sky Hope Foundation and invest in education regardless of tribal or regional affiliations.
“We urge other organizations and well-meaning individuals to follow this example by supporting youth empowerment and education, transcending tribal, religious, or regional differences,” Umar added.
The Sky Hope Foundation’s program has been lauded as a significant step toward addressing educational challenges and fostering unity and progress in Northern Nigeria.
