Wayo Buhari government,have U paid school fees for the ones studying abroad already on d platform??

My state governor still dey find yellow sisi up and down...when this country go better, if you see better mosquitos wey dey my wall dey wait make I sleep.. Crying

Good

well.... This is a case productive compensation or lets just call its real name...

Bribe

Positive plans to fix The damage to that region is what we should be hearing.

Not only scholarships.... Now a days the book way you read no day directly proportional to the job way you go get.... Phd holder day do tailor.... In nigeria.

Dfc

.

This is marginalization. Every time Imo and Abia states are excluded from any form of grant or scholarship of NDDC. Why then call them Niger Delta states? We also say Northerners are our problem but we are the problem ourselves. God dey shaa.

lol nigeria is afraid of Nnamdi KANU release. its well.

When a new government comes in 2019 now they'd abandon all of them to their fate... Nigeria needs to be shutdown, then a grand plan be drafted before it can be reopened again!!! Nothing works without a plan, Nigeria lacks plan and we need a plan to move forward!!!

k

Hmmm....... what of those suffering abroad all in the name of government scholarships?.....smh

By God's grace if we finally get this scholarship now...hope they will not abandon us there#just askingo

Not true.

They published scores of candidates on their website after the test and they also published list of successful scholars on their website. They were quite transparent last year.

You are wrong. The last set of awardees names were published by NDDC. Also, many people got it without knowing someone. I know alot of brilliant folks who got it.The only issue with the scholarship is prompt payment of scholars.

It's high time Niger deltans get a little benefit from the country they have been feeding.

Ok
