Nigerian academic, entrepreneur and inventor Prof. Gregory Ibeh has endowed $1 million for the global fight against the coronavirus pandemic.

Ibeh will also help facilitate the research via his Abia-based Gregory University Uturu, which announced the move in a statement on January 19.

According to Rosemary Igboekwe, Registrar of Gregory University Uturu,the endowment fund, which will be available to Scientists and Researchers within the bounds of southern Nigeria as grants, will be channelled through Gregory Iyke Foundation, the philanthropic organ of Prof Gregory Ibe.

The move will put Nigeria, which has been heavily reliant on foreign scientific aid, high on the ladder of COVID-19 research globally.

A letter addressed to Vice Chancellors of federal,state and private universities in southern Nigeria signed by the Registrar therefore requests, “Interested Research Scientists to submit their proposals to the secretary of the COVID-19 Research Fund Committee, Dr Prince Nkemakolam Okoroh of the Department of Biochemistry, Gregory University Uturu, on or before February 28, 2021.”
