idris4r83: Hmmm, is only God can that help us out o. I heard d applicants are almost 30,000 and more are still registering before the closing date. By my rough calculations only 735 candidates I.e 20 from each 36 states and 15 from fct will be shortlisted. And out of the 735 shortlisted candidates only 185 candidates will scale through I.e 5 from each 36 states including fct. Looking @ dis figures is very scary and discouraging. When u add up d number of senators that may each have their slots u will c dat 109 slots are gone, also 36 slots are gone 4 d governors, don't forget that their will also be slots from the over 200 generals in d army, then house of reps members, ministers, presidency all have their candidates. Am not here 2 scare people o but 2 urge us 2 pray seriously over the shortlistment cos is only GOD that have unlimited slots and may He make us be among the successful ones.
