To them, shisha is enjoyable and harmless but the fumes are poisonous.

Imagine!
The level of mismanagement and Inefficiency displayed by the board is rather appalling!
What they can't do to the foreign Scholars, they find it easy to do such to the In-Country Scholars!!!!
This is corruption at it's peak!!!
EFCC should investigate their deeds; and set. their asses on fire.

The glee that accompanied our selection as PTDF scholars was unfathomable, when we were called upon to attend the induction ceremony in July 2016. Following a successful induction program and series of documentations for both Local and Foreign Scholars in the MSc and PhD category respectively, we did hope to get our stipends sooner and commence/continue our respective graduate studies in our preferred Institutions.

Sadly, after 340 days of the award not one of the Local scholars have received any form of payments from PTDF (be in form of tuition or other expense) as at this day. To worsen it all, while our colleagues who were awarded in the OSS category (Foreign Scholars) are almost wrapping up their postgraduate studies outside the country with their full stipend paid despite the high forex rates, we are still dwindling in the dungeons of despair, holding to a fading believe that “one day PTDF will pay”.

In an attempt to convey our plight and egregious discourse to the PTDF management and well-meaning Nigerians, we wrote a letter to the board in the month of March, which was also published on various media. Stating the pathetic neglect of the Nigerian scholars by PTDF. Following that move, another documentation was conducted (the 4th documentation exercise), apparently raising valid grounds for us to question the record keeping ability of the board and the entire PTDF team. Notwithstanding, it has been three months since then and still no stipends, nor personal computers has been disbursed to any of the 2016 Local Scholars. Sad it is!

The despicability of our situation have worsened to the state where our various institutions have pestered to the point of harassment, demanding for our tuitions be paid before allowing us take examinations, while for some their results are being seized pending when payments will be made by PTDF. Time will not suffice to begin to lament the missed opportunities or the unattainable heights in excellence and more robust results that would have been achieved in our thesis and projects had the resources (stipends and learning aid) been provided in due time. These opportunities and privileges we thought we've earned scholarly have been obviously denied us by the boards inefficiencies and lackadaisical attitude in handling the affairs of home grown scholars.

Now, we are in a dire straight, we have been pushed to the wall, we have endured enough. We are now propelled to let out our grievances to the Presidency, we are enlivened to voice out our predicaments to all well-meaning Nigerians. Let all and sundry be aware of the unfair, inhumane and negligent manner in which the PTDF body has neglected the LSS scholars by denying the payment of our stipends after 11 months and 7 days of award.

Is growing Nigerians in Nigeria not failing, if we continue to despise Local Scholars. Is capacity building and development in Nigeria not collapsing if we don’t value Education and trainings acquired in the country? Is it now a norm to always engage in protests before our voices be heard and get what we deserve in terms of Scholarship stipends?
If we are to go by the statement made by the PTDF Executive Secretary, Dr. Bello Aliyu Gusau who openly retorted that “overseas scholarship scheme is not sustainable therefore they will put more efforts to sponsoring and developing local content”, we expect high priority and immediate response be given to Local Scholars. Otherwise we call such statement mere vocal ejaculations without fittings as the actions does not follow the paths of the words.
However, if the statement remains true, we urge the board to pay our funds before the end of the month of June 2017.

After Studying the Nigerian Vegetable(tomato) market for almost three years, i advice Nigerians in the south (south-west/south-east/south-south) to braze for impact, cause the price of tomato is about to skyrocket like never before.

Its obvious we depend on the north to provide us with most agric produce and the ones we produce in the south, cannot cover 1/4 of the market.



To the main reason why Tomato is expensive from End of May till July, the gluts that comes in august.

1) Why tomato is always expensive from the period may-July

As i stated earlier in my post, the north controls our stomach so from experience, and constant visit to the north especially areas

where tomatoes are farmed. I noticed when the rain is been expected almost everyone stops thinking about farming vegetables/tomatoes in

the north, they tend to focus more on cereals(maize, millet etc) which is less stressful, not knowing it will have a negative effect

on the market. Their belief is when its rainy season its time to plant maize which is also lucrative.

Tu ta-absoluta might also add as a catalyst to this but not withstanding even in the south we tend to farm other produce apart from veges during rainy season



(2) Glut in The Market By August

Well from my personal study when farmers, both professionals and newbies get to know price of tomatoes has gone up. They all sharpen
their hoes and cutlasses, then decide to load the market with tomatoes which by the time of harvest probably 90days everyone is harvesting. When supply exceeds demands well all know the price will fall there is no magic to it. We all know how perishable tomato is with little shelve like everyone just wants to get it off their hands and so therefore they sell at funny prices baskets of tomatoes that costs 25,000 naira in June will go for 3,000 naira or less. So there is no magic to the whole tomato issue if you plant now cause the price is high by the time of harvest it will be otherwise.



In few weeks the price will go higher and we keep blaming the government for our plight, we can solve our problems ourselves so
i believe we still have months ahead till the scarcity next year so as for this year BRAZE YOURSELVES.

Long senseless post

The UN just needs a repeat of 1966 pogrom to force Referendum on Biafran soil

kc2hansome:
we both know that's a big joke. infact those Hausa youths would be stopped by their elders. because if they try to enforce those things. then they've played right into the ipob script.

which would be wonderful. if they start killing in the north by October first, I put it to u that Biafra's independence date would be that October first.

so u see why Igbos in the forum are rejoicing!!
it's "some Yorubas" that are carrying the mata for head like gala hawkers at cele - oshodi express.

Hausa made a comment to Igbos, Yoruba carry the comment for head.

I personally think that most moniker(both igbos SS and Yorubas) are really Hausa/Fulani.
I've not experienced any heated argument between Igbos and Hausas on this forum.
Or are u telling me they don't own phones

They keep playing this divide and rule thing. and most Yorubas always fall prey....

all we are saying is simple

FREE BIAFRA!!!!!

TheCabal:
I am not shocked at this . I was privy to some information regarding the last presidential election. Several heavy weights from these regions did not care who the presidential candidate was in the APC as long as it was not in any way associated with the east.

The very thing that destroyed Jonathan. His romance with the South-East.. made him smell pungent in other regions.

The east is certainly at the disadvantage because the north is not bothered when a westerner rules the country. It is the east they will not tolerate, and it seems more regions are beggining to complain but the east has refused to look inward and ask themselves why so many ethnic groups resent them. Instead they delude themselves with their "development" theory.

They forget - if they are not there someone else will take up the space.

I will urge these northern groups to think deeply before shooting themselves in the foot,the agitation by the IBO's can be settled easily by letting the IBO's assume leadership of this country a privilege they truly deserves they made costly mistakes In the past but so do all of us,it is clear that they have been marginalized over the years,the north should critically examined it's economic position in a divided Nigeria vis-à-vis their landlock location,you may seize IBO properties now but the effects of vengeance will be terrible, it is also fool hardy to assume that the northern Christian minorities believe in your phantom one north after all the massacres n clear pursuits of Islamic dominance, as a matter of fact this should be a wake up call to the northern minorities to begining to chart a course for their tomorrow, today n right now I'm calling on Benue, Taraba,Nasarawa,Adamawa,n Plateau States to start the process for the establishment of the FREE PEOPLES REPUBLIC OF BERIVAREA(Benue river area) with capital in MAKURDI(due to it's distance away from arewa areas),all we need in this country is to accept n respect each other,let all of us feel n know that we all own this country if not then yes,let's go our separate ways,no body should be inferior to anybody we have seen enough, we have had enough,enough is enough.

Goods got to them Since 22 December and I Paid some days after hoping it would be shipped by 28th December as told by one of their reps after calling, only to get a mail from them this morning that they regret to inform me about some delays and my goods will just be shipped from the US today... This is after paying their very high shipping charges, yet they cannot still deliver
