I am delighted when I read about this scholarship program you have posted and I would like to apply for this as it has been my prayers to study one time in University of Alberta under this scholarship program so that I can come back and work, improve the human resource systems within this new born Country South Sudan. It is my aspiration that after completion of this study program, I will come back to help and work in South Sudan and guide my people to the promised land.
