All federal government-owned organizations, such as NNPC, DPR, etc are for the north nepotism else only a few or none will get in there on a normal aptitude test. Federal character is another Nigeria scam project from the inception of our independence. 2 Likes 1 Share |

I believe him 1000%. Buhari's nepotism and bigotry has been in him from birth. Na pre-installed app....he is saying there's no northerner on the list, how many northerners have achieved anything tangible in the international community? No be una say school na haram? Ndi boko haram 9 Likes 1 Share |

I can't say much but personally this same thing has happened to me and my colleagues (we are southerners schooling in the north) lose out on opportunities here in the south to our Southern counterparts schooling here in the south... Don't tell me Merit because we were way qualified and our school ranks amongst the best when it comes to Engineering... So this thing happens in the south same way it happens in the North... Federal character don die tey... Now na man know man. 1 Like 2 Shares |

Gjrich: Yes nah! That's how Nigeria functions. When you get there like BUHARI is doing just kindly focus on your region. Jonathan went in there and start favouring the North thinking they will support his second term bid,north knowing Nigeria doesn't function that way. If I am made president today! I will focus on my region first. 1 Like 2 Shares |

➡All across the world, you hear stories of Nigerians in the Diaspora excelling & making the marks in all arenas of human development, sports, academics, finance, entertainment, defence, politics, science, arts etc. ➡But you never hear a northern Muslim name, because they can only survive in the "Quota System" of Nigerian sociopolitical environment. ➡Any Northerner you see in the international Arena is there by political appointment & notmerit. Their backward culture has slowed them down & they want other progressive Nigerian societies to stagnate with them.. Satan is a liar❗❕❗‼⁉❗❕ ❌❌❌ 3 Likes 1 Share

God will help Nigeria. Amen. Jesus said that anyone who doesn't believe that he is the Son of God is condemned already. His birth was of the Holy Ghost.... He was not conceived by a man's sperm or a woman's egg. He was made by the Spirit of God..... He is the Son of God. The father's fullness was made flesh and placed in the womb of Mary. Do you believe him? Run to him. After death, that's all, there will be no remedy. 1 Like |

samunaka: They will report positive things about this government when eventually the government starts doing positive things but as of now! Their evil will never be left unnoticed. I would have said this news is false but come to NNPC in Warri and see for yourself. All top officials positions with juicy salaries are filled with Abokis, the non aboki you will likely find there are Yoruba Muslims who have vow to be slave to aboki for their daily bread. 9 Likes 1 Share |

he cancelled the whole list of candidates that qualified for the scholarship! If he had a little shred of humanity or conscience left in him, he would have atleast allowed them. And done his magomago nepotism in the next edition of the PRESSID. Is it not the same APC govt that cancelled employment and appointment of people that are already working and have collected salary for three months to replace them with their own candidates? 5 Likes 1 Share |

Simplyleo: Please stop with the capping. You should investigate before making your claims. I was a party to what happened in 2015. Buhari cancelled the PRESSID scholarship due to nepotic reasons. I won't say much on this issue again 10 Likes 1 Share |

He is absolutely positively correct. Four classmates of mine graduated with 1st classes and benefitted from the 1st and 2nd editions of the PRESSID. They are all of Yoruba extraction. I did interact with one of them who is now a PhD holder from a prestigious university in the USA and he said of the 103 candidates who were shortlisted as successful, non were of Northern extraction judging by the names on the list. They were all Yoruba, Igbo, South South and Middle Beltans. Please keep in mind, the PRESSID was for strictly 1st class graduates. PRESSID did not have the issues that we saw with other Federal Government scholarships such as PTDF, NDIC NITDA and a host of others. It was not an issue of man know man, you needed to have a 1st class from a STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Math) field. You take a computer based exam and you get your result instantly. PRESSID was directly under the purview of the NUC under the then Professor Okebukola, he has a track record as a seasoned education professional. It was a strictly Merit-based affair. I believe Northern candidates took the test but non were successful (for the 1st and 2nd edition, I do not know of the 3rd). I believe it stopped after the 3rd edition. The story by Buhari's regime was that oil prices had fallen in 2015 hence they could not find the resources to fund it (but there is always resources to fund their own excesses). Overall, this is not to say there are no Northerners who are intelligent and gifted. But time and time again, we have seen this common pattern where ethnic champions such as Mohammadu Buhari will readily jettison strictly merit-based exercises such as this painting it as a Southern agenda. It simply shows we are not nor were we ever a country. It is one of the reasons why I have consistently, whether on nairaland or elsewhere, campaigned for independent regions away from this horrible country. Where on earth have you seen serious minded people using quota system on serious things that should be strictly merit-based. When I say Nigeria cannot amount to much, this is what I see that makes me say this. Let each region go their own way and find best ways to promote their best and brightest to manage their affairs. Insofar as we continue to have men of dubious moral character govern us, men who champion the rights of their own ethnic group over others or their own religion over others, we cannot amount to anything meaningful. It is not a curse, it is the truth that no amount of prayer or fasting can undo. Nigeria must be dissolved, let each region go their separate way and find the best solution to their problems. 15 Likes 2 Shares |

O my Pressid. I was part of the 2015 winners. Buhari halted our plans then after we rejected other scholarships to wait for Pressid. But in all we thank God for where we are and how far we've gone. That made many of the folks then lose hope in Nigeria. Many found other ways and never returned back. 7 Likes 2 Shares |
