Babe I know but I can't fight...

See scam by LASG..

1, Why should applicant pay #2000 for application fee?

2, why are they going to shortlist applicant after paying #2000? Automatic they don't have money to give out for scholarship and it out of the #2000 collected from applicant they will use to source the scholarship.

3, They remix this and called it scholarship instead of the bursary they do call it before.

4, why paying for what they called free?

5, In one word they are collecting tax from the poor students which is called STEALING.

God punish all board members and their generation and visit them with disease that don't have cure in Jesus name..

Some useless NL people are hyping this due to lack of thinking and say the governor/government is working
