We are pleased to inform the general public that Mamman Marshal is inviting all suitably qualified women in Journalism for its 2025 scholarship program.
The application deadline for this scholarship is 6th November 2025. All interested candidates are urged to apply before the deadline.
About The Scholarship
The scholarship award is specifically to support female students of Journalism or Mass communications in three universities across Nigeria.
The scholarship was instituted in 2017 to celebrate a man who educated his daughters against the grain of his time, giving them an advantage that sets them apart from their peers.
This scholarship award, set up by one of his daughters who has risen to become a reference point, a positive image, and an example against a backdrop of impossibilities and impediments in Journalism, is to honour her father and his extraordinary legacy.
In 2018, another set of 6 female students from these three universities was awarded the scholarship from the 2019 academic year to the completion of their first degree. In this third year of the scholarship, a new set of 6 female students will be awarded the Mamman Marshal Scholarship for Women in Journalism.
