Chevron believes that if people and communities are to thrive, education and job training are
of critical importance. The thrust of our educational support strategy is improved access to

Focus Story
scholar turns company owner
He graduated in 2014, but today, Vincent Ajilo is not only a

successful engineer, he has also emerged as a fast-growing
employer of labor in the Nigerian oil and gas industry. His story is
a lesson in hard work and perseverance that inspires hope.
He was born into a relatively comfortable family. At the age of

eight, the family hit a rough patch which threatened the future
of the precocious child. As young as he was at the time, Vincent
was not deterred. Even as a child, he realized that the only way
to get his family out of the pangs of poverty was by working
hard in school. He remained top of the class and though this
was impressive and encouraging, he needed help or his dream
of being an engineer would suffer. This is where his relationship
with the Agbami Medical and Engineering Professionals
Scholarship (AMEPS) programme started.
In 2009, the Agbami parties, including, FAMFA Oil Nigeria

Limited, Statoil, Petrobras and the NNPC, established AMEPS
to encourage science education in the country. Vincent, then a
200-Level undergraduate engineering student at the University
of Ibadan, emerged as one of its pioneer beneficiaries.
The scholarship lifted a major burden off his shoulders, which

enabled him to concentrate on his studies. “With this scholarship
and other grants that I received, the distraction of wondering
where my next meal would come from was no longer there and I
could focus on my academics. AMEPS had a positive impact on
my career development and supported my academic pursuits,”
Vincent said.
After graduating with a First-Class Honours degree in

Engineering, Vincent went on to obtain his Master of Science
degree in Petroleum Engineering.
He is now the Chief Executive Officer of Ajivin Integrated

Solutions, a private firm that delivers services to the oil and gas
industry. His company is currently contracted to manage the
construction of a 46-kilometer export pipeline as well as the
installation of a Floating Storage and Offloading (FSO) vessel for
a local company.
His family now has a support line through his business

endeavours. The scholarship, according to him, acted as a ‘spark
toward his life and career achievements.’ He said, “The Agbami
Scholarship programme is highly needed by students. I am
a living proof of its importance. It helps beneficiaries secure
their educational needs - tuition, accommodation, food, and
course materials. It also encourages them to study harder to
remain on the scholarship programme, which is a requirement
for continuous reimbursement. Ultimately, it helps beneficiaries
achieve career goals. And for parents, the financial burden is
totally removed or reduced. The Agbami scholarship program is
a practical act of giving back to society.”

The Foundation for Partnership Initiatives in the Niger Delta (PIND) was established in 2010 as a non-profit
foundation in Nigeria to serve as the operational entity funded by the Washington, D.C.-based Niger Delta
Partnership Initiative (NDPI).
PIND develops new solutions to the economic and social development challenges in the Niger Delta, and
complements Chevron’s GMoU process, which has been an effective model for building relationships and
managing risks from communities close to the company’s operations.
PIND’s regional social risk management strategy focuses on four main areas: Economic Development;
Capacity Building; Peace Building; and Analysis and Advocacy.
