Sammy Oriko and Landgreen Makhoha were admitted to the prestigious Maranda School, Eva Moraa and Zawadi Tamara reported to Sironga Girls High School, Esther Achieng is at Asumbi Girls High School while Trizah Shem was enrolled in St Brigid’s High School.
The Totenham Hotspur midfielder shared the inspiring story on social media as soon as the six students had been enrolled into their respective schools
“I am very proud of the scholarship programme, above all I’m proud of the students we selected. Looking at their results, their background and the schools they attended, you can see great potential in them. I pledge to support then as I had stated earlier, to enable them to reach their potential. It is also important to motivate them to work hard in school,” Wanyama said.
The six were chosen after a vigorous process of application and interviews
Victor Wanyama Foundation was formally registered in 2019 and is based in Busia county on a 20 acre piece of land.
The foundation will largely be used by Wanyama to give back to the society as well as host his futuristic school dubbed Victor Wanyama Academy.
Wanyama also recently donated a 40-seater bus to his former club County Bus FC and the Muthurwa Boxing Club.
