According to her, the company has decided to give cash rewards to the fourth and up to the 21st position, who would make it to the finals and semi-finals of the competition in Nigeria and all their teachers, as well as six teachers in Kenya as a way of recognizing their efforts in preparing the students and laying the foundational bricks for a brighter future for them.
