Nawaeb District Students attending the University of Goroka, have been praised for presenting their acquittals, back to the Nawaeb District Administration. The students were given funding of K50 000 upon special circumstances affecting their accommodation status whilst attending the institution at Goroka. The acquittals were presented during their closing function recently and received by Nawaeb MP Theo Pelgen’s representatives, Nawaeb DDA Members, Church & Youth Representative Mr Eric Mantaung and Mr Jimmy Amati. MP Pelgen said that this is true character of leadership shown by the students to show clearly how the funds were spent and distributed according to its purpose. “I praise the students for embarking on reporting on the support given to them.” The MP further appealed to the all others that have been allocated funds from the district this year, to properly acquit the funding clearly on which specific projects or programs they have undertaken. “This practice of acquitting will ensure all funds are utilized for its purposes and that will maintain transparency and accountability of funds received from the National Government to the district.” MP Pelgen was keen on allowing funds to be fully utilized for its intended purposes. Meanwhile, the MP said he is fully backing the UOG students endeavor to establish a Student Association that aims to carryout educational, social and economic awareness during the holiday period in all LLGs of Nawaeb.
