A 20-year-old ‘cookery’ seller, Fatmata H. Kamara has pleaded for financial assistance to fund her university education.

Kamara, an alumna of the Methodist Girls’ High School said she is unable to start her university education due to financial difficulties.

Esther Terina Kargbo reported that Kamara is seeking financial support.

“I live with my mum and sister since I lost my father 9 years ago.

“I sell ‘cookery’ on Wilkinson Road on a bi-weekly basis,” the 20-year-old said.

While secondary education in Sierra Leone is free, university education is expensive with tuition running into millions of old Leones.
