Apart from that, Aussie allows you to extend your visa after msc.
Atleast, my friend has been staying there since he rounded up his masters.

Any scholarship program sponsored by the government doesn't give you any extension. Go and read their immigration rules.

You didn't add a dime to their economy, and you want to stay behind?

They will kick you out with a big boot cheesy

That's not true.
That's the truth. You have to return to your home country for at least 2 years after your studies. If you want to stay behind, you can apply and if your application is granted, you will be allowed to further your studies, but immediately after the extension, you will have to go back to your country for twice the amount of time you spent in Australia. So, if you do PHD for 3 years, you will be required to return to Nigeria for 6 years and if you don't, you will be a debtor to the Australian Government and you will have to pay back the money spent on you. So, if you are applying because you want Permanent Residency or something, then you need to have a rethink, but if it is just for studies, then you can go ahead and apply. This is a very good scholarship scheme for those who just want to study. Also, try as much as possible to read the conditions for scholarship.
