If no quota system applied the northerners won't succeed, the majority that will succeed will be Yoruba and Biafra.

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.

The real problem is not about Bihari but about the north generally
The north is the bane of this country. Lord Lugard in collaboration with the devil has denied Africa and the black race what would have been a world power. Imagine a southern Nigerian nation on its own, we shall achieve wonders but it is never too late

So which scholarship exam is that?

Which organisation conducted the screening?

For sure, if it is a foreign body, the body would have sponsored it and Buhari has no power over it.

If it is fed govt body, then I say without iota of doubt, this is a big fat lie. Fed govt scholarships are usually spread across geopolitical zones, and indeed, states, so how comes no Northerners passed?

Keep lying to yourselves.

Some of these clowns making noise about Northerners always make me laugh. Go to schools dominated by Northerners and see how they beat their Southern counterparts in all ramifications. Yes, I'm a living witness, (ABU Zaria) but you can bullshit yourself that Northern graduates can't compete with you. That is nothing but self deception.

Minister of communication and digital economy is a northerner. Pls which of the ministerial nominees performed better than him during screening. As I have said, you can bullshit yourself to feel satisfied, that is your business.

You mean Buhari has no power to do that,but when it comes to appointing more northerners,he will have such power abi......
Stop defending a man that practice nepotism because his actions alone has summarized the kind of man he is.

You are a disappointment, My Friend.
This is PRESSID, it is a special Presidential Scholarship, instituted by President Jonathan, exclusively for 1st CLass Students, that is the ONLY Criteria.

University of Cambridge -United Kingdom

Harvard University – United States

Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) – United States

Imperial College London – United Kingdom

UCL (University College London) – United Kingdom

University of Chicago – United States

Read the above again, slowly.

BTW, everybody, Northerners/Southerners meet in some "open places" (like NYSC, Law School, etc) and l can bet you, aside for a very tiny fraction of Northerners that distinguish themselves, (due to mixing with Southerners maybe),, 99% of Northern Products are Mediocre.
We both know this.

You can also see this when their competitive abilities are put to test in foreign climes, where their penchant for 'rankah dehdeh" cannot be put to use. Southerners dust them 99% to 1%.
Why is it that 90% of Northerners with Doctorate Degree, have it in Islamic Studies, from the Middle East Universities, not Medicine, not Engineering, not Aeronautics, not Software Development, not Law, from any of the top Universities in the World? undecided undecided

Well, me I remember during National Common Entrance those days; the Northern States had the lowest cut off scores and the highest cut off scores was either Edo girls or Anambra girls.

Wondering if that is same till thisday. Now, the silly ones in power no go remember Federal Character abi quota system.. I would keep on saying this cleanse your heart of tribalism and vote for the right person in the future..

I marked northern students scripts. Is a mess sincerely. Even 10 was added to uplift them. The ministerial positions under buhari is political in all scope of reasoning. So what are you talking about.
This was why johnathan wanted to expose the north through education. But immediately Bihari came in those school built in the north by johnathan was a history.
You should be ashamed to come here and talk blindly about an obvious fact In this government.
Can you plz tell me what buhari has done regarding education since he came in as the president?
Pls let's be well guided.


He is not from the north but a yoruba man who is defending the north like his life depends on it

It was happening during Goodluck's regime because he was from the south.

I don't support tribalism or buhari but come too think of it how can a list of 101 qualified students not contain even at least 1 northerner ...
their own first class candidates could not score high enough performance compared with first class from other parts of the country in the same exam/test to make the final scholarship list.

It was a level playing field man. It is just like the current Nigerian idol competition. Nothing like bias there, u either have it or you don't! Simple!

They can't actually compete when pitted against southerners.

I went to a northern school. Fut Minna and in my set, there was no single core-northern first class graduate from the school of engineering. In my department, all the three first-class were Yorubas. Ondo, Oyo and Kwara.

It's what it's. The problem is not that they are naturally daft, the problem is they don't in most cases have the hunger.

The core-northerner society has a problem with scholarship, they are too none charlatan and believe that attending a university alone is all that is needed to survive since the requirement for civil service has been ridiculously lowered for them under the pretence of quota.

Oga, even though this forum is faceless, I dey shame for your moniker. These are the rumours students on 3rd class and below spread around.

In case you don't know, ATBU is one of the best universities of technology in the North. Most of my colleagues are graduates of the school. Funny enough, they are southerners and Christians. If you say this in the presence of any of them, na hot slap dem go sound you.

I have a feeling you didn't make 3rd class.

Why not ask them and get back to us here? Even 2 days ago a Christian student there still told his elder brother the same thing and I told them its the same thing 20 years ago. You must live under a rock
