NEW: President bids farewell to Algeria-bound students

Wallace Ruzvidzo

PRESIDENT MNANGAGWA on Thursday saw off five students who are leaving the country for Algeria on a scholarship programme.

In his remarks at State House, the President exhorted the students to always remember that they are not just representing themselves but the country at large.

“When you are there you individually and collectively become ambassadors of our country,” he said.

“So never think that you are an individual; wherever you are, you are actually representing us.”

One of the scholarship beneficiaries, Natasha Ruvimbo, said she was elated to have been accorded the scholarship.

“I am 20 and I was overjoyed, excited and, most of all, grateful to God for awarding me this opportunity and also to the President for this scholarship opportunity,” she said.

Another student, Melogina Mano, said: “I am very happy because this is not an opportunity accorded to many.”
