President Muhammadu Buhari Monday in Abuja granted full scholarship up to the Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) degree level to three secondary students who emerged winners at the year 2020 Young Nigerian Scientists Presidential Award Competition.

The scholarship is in any science-related discipline of their choice at any university in the country.

Declaring open the 2020 Science, Technology and Innovation Expo with the theme ''Enhancing The Growth Of A Diversified Economy Through Science And Technology'', the President commended the creativity and competitive spirit of the three young scientists who emerged tops in the competition tagged 774 Young Nigerian Scientists Presidential Award (774 YONSPA).

The students are Masters Akintade Abdullahi Akanbi of Osun State from Osogbo Government High School Osogbo, Osun State, who came first; while the second positions went to Uwakwe Nelson Kamsiyochukwu of Anambra State from British Spring College, Awka and Aimofumhe Eshiobomhe Sigmus of FCT from the School of the Gifted, Gwagwalada, Abuja, respectively.

President Buhari noted that Nigeria’s greatest resource is its human capital, assuring that his administration would continue to support human resource development.

''This is richly embodied in our youth who make up tens of millions of incredibly talented persons, constantly pushing and striving towards greatness. The future of Nigeria belongs to our youth.

''This Administration will therefore continue to create the enabling environment for them to develop to the fullest, their potentials.

''We will harness their energy and their talents to make Nigeria achieve true greatness,'' he said.

The President reiterated the commitment of the Federal Government to partner with the private sector on science, technology and innovation sector development towards ensuring that the sector plays the very important role in advancing the frontiers of knowledge for nation building.

''Government will continually support the creation of intervention funds to strengthen research and development, human capacity building programmes and collaboration with the organized private sector.

''We will continue to work towards the realisation of the National Research and Innovation Fund. I am aware, this Fund will help promote research activities in our country,'' he said.

The President, therefore, directed the ministers of science and technology to create the needed opportunities to ensure that Nigerian scientists work towards providing solutions to the nation's challenges of insecurity, unemployment, poverty, healthcare delivery and power, among others.

Lol.

Orisirisi

Awol1:
The pictures from that scene looks more like terrorist attack than this sorry explanation.

You hateful souls always pray for negative news every time.

Well, Mr Awolu, it was confirmed that it was due to a gas explosion. If you don’t like it, you can pray for a terrorist attack in your state of origin to get a hold on how bombing really looks like.

Alright.

I think Asiwaju already spoke about this. Let’s see what happens eventually, but I can bet it that Oshiomhole is gonna remain as the party chairman.

Well he said the truth. Everyone already learnt their lessons.

The Igbo already learnt it.
The Hausa/Fulani learnt it.
The Yorubas also learnt it.
The minority tribes learnt it.

Another cretin exploiting the anonymity advantage of Nairaland to indulge in self-glorification.
You ain't worthy of my time.

You toyed with the wrong person you know.

Next time check monikers well before embarking on a show of shame.

I can support whoever I want and I don’t think your opinion matters in this world or the hereafter. Now will be the last time to engage you.

Bye!!

Mintek:
See them...*ss-lickers. Keep worshiping the same idi*t who has looted away your future.

Defenders of thieves.

Seems you miss your dosage. If your future is looted, it’s none of my business.

I can feed your entire lineage up to your third generation and it’s not bragging!

Again, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Jagaban.

Go and die if the name is a poison to you!!

Asiwaju Tinubu jagaban of the universe!!

QuotaSystem:
The narrative of the North as a backward undeveloped desert is often deliberately propagated by mainstream media because apart from the fact the bad news sells better, the HDI statistics don't help matters, even though they're a skewed representation of the North, mostly because those statistics & indexes are calculated per-capita and the North's huge population will always present it worse that it actually is.

An example is how the typical European or American always thinks Africa is a backward jungle thanks to Western media (again, because bad news sells better) and negative statistics like most Africans living on less than a dollar a day; when in reality, millions of Africans use iPhones, go on vacations, live comfortably in Estates & fly business class.

With social media and the Web, such narratives are being shattered gradually and I hope along with you, that development reaches all corners and strata of society.

Nice one. I’ve always adored how Arrewa devoted time in setting the narratives right. It’s really a good thing speaking for the North by a northerner coz most times the southerners have made it a duty of speaking for the North ourselves.

Most times, we always get our information from the media and that corrode our thought about the North. I have always believed in the development stereotype too until my brother was posted to Kano as a youth corper this year, and I asked him:

Me: Shey Kano fine pass Akure?
Him: Place wey I even fit talk say e fine reach Lagos”. However he said, the people contained in the place are too low coz they no fit the place. He’s talking about being posh.

The only thing the North seems to be lagging behind in is the human development. If the North can work on that then I think they will be better than the south. People like you can lead the crusade on human development and you will see that in no time, the North will keep the mouth of the south shut!

You guys should continue projecting the North in a good light, it’s a nice thing and I like it that Nairaland is being supportive now coz the other thread already reached front page.

That senile dog needs to be put down for society's good.

And who is the senile dog?

Rawani:
Cc: Arrewa

Lol. I was about to copy Arrewa too to see one of the thread he likes creating.

As a southerner, I want the best for the North tho coz I think when everywhere is developed, it will be a win-win for the country.

Dino my guy!

First of all, university is a citadel of learning which hosts people from different background so it’s nice that people can compete for the best irrespective of where they find themselves. Even in USA, there are cases where Nigerians emerge the best graduating student, so I don’t see the need for noise.

In the case of LASU 2019, two people emerged the best graduating students and vanguard captured the news below.

Iku baba yeye.

Fayemi Fayemi Fayemi!

How many times did I call you?

OP, you really fall my hand lol. At least if you are gonna snap, you should endaveour to do a good job.

Below is the google earth view of the prestigious UI that you just ridiculed on this thread!

Oshigun:
Their SE must be a cauldron of hate, ignorance and intolerance. Such backward people. No wonder hate and ethnic jingoism is second nature to them. Good luck to anyone who dares to be anything but Igbo catholic in the SE.

Hahahahah lol.

You captured the bolded well. The funniest thing is that they don’t seems to self-asses themselves before criticizing others.

It’s an irony that the Igbos can accuse the North of religious animosity when they (Igbos) themselves are the image of religious treachery!

No cause for alarm.

Antivirus92:
it is actually nothing to be proud of
let them be with whatever they believe in,
in the east, they are too small to be seen as being in existence

We both agree on something. Igbo Muslims are too small truly.

mrvitalis:
I can bet my balls that guy is Yoruba ...if he is north it won't pass kwara or kogi

Then your balls will be roasted and fed to the pigs coz the guy is a proud Northerner!

Antivirus92:
do u understand igbo?
how do u know what they are saying

There is a full thread on Nairaland on the said issue. You should also see what your fellow kinsmen typed in English to support the self-hatred of people of their kind.

Check thread:
https://www.nairaland.com/5225497/igbos-attack-bbc-igbo-wishing

Also, in this age of google translator, I don’t think it will be hard for me to understand Igbo.

A tụgharịrị m iji google ugbu a ị ga-ahụ na m nwere ike ịgụ ihe e dere na igbo

Antivirus92:
i don't even think bbc igbo did that
what is the population of people that are muslims in igboland?
it's like wishing morroccans happy easter on their national radio

Well, they did and the below screenshots give credence to my claim.

On the bolded, even if Igbo Muslims are 1% of the population, they are human beings and are Igbos by blood. Why do you detest your own because they serve their God differently? What is the moral justification for that? Ain’t the Igbos also as religiously toxic like the North you always seek to insult?

To support my argument, we can also see how your kinsmen made it a duty to divide the Yoruba along religious line with the rubbish tag of Yoruba Muslims everywhere. You all seek hatred and unprovoked animosity to other people and expect love and solidarity in return. Ain’t possible bro!

Note: BBC Igbo page had since removed that post because they can’t swallow in the magnitude of insult from your kinsmen!

gwafaeziokwu:
From what hole did you crept from. Am I supposed to shake in my boots or what with that nonsense you just wrote. Please hammer me into shape LegendHero. I am waiting.

Lol. I’m replying to what you accused Oshigun of. You said he took it upon himself to respond to you guys while blaming him for being the mouthpiece of the North.

You forgot your kinsmen was on this same thread hating on the Yorubas and you think we will just keep shut and let it pass?

One of your fellow even said Yorubas fear the Igbo. I laughed my ass off. Fear you for what?

Radarada obe oloka!

Antivirus92:
what you're saying my friend does not apply to igbo people alone,
the northeners are highly clannish ,sentimental and full of religious intolerance, moreso than an average igbo man

The Igbos are as clannish, sentimental, and intolerant as the North in terms of religious animosity.

I was checking the Igbo BBC page last year when they greeted the Igbo Muslim happy eid. The hate by the Igbo Christian on that page showed you are nothing different from the North you always choose to insult in terms of religion. Some even wished evil and death to their fellow Igbo just because they worship the creator differently.

gwafaeziokwu:
The import of my post is lost on you as usual. Your brothers and their co travellers up north are crying of cyber bullying up there, and here you are asking if I have the balls to put an Almajiri in his place.

He is a product of QuotaSystem. I will wipe the floor with him if he dares.

Lol.

The Igbo man will be the first to find the trouble of a Yoruba man. His kinsmen will cheer him on. When the Yoruba man turns back to deal with him, his Igbo kinsmen will start shouting hate speech and begging the Yoruba to stop.

This scenario above have been happening over Nairaland for quite some time. You guys have feeble emotions and you can easily be hammered into shape by superior intellect.

Stop finding the wahala of the Yoruba folks. We are calm, resolute, slow to anger, but very intelligent with the right and devastating reply to provocations.

Oshigun:
My friend, you are the fool. What respect should Nigerians accord the tribalistic Igbos and what future did you see?

When GEJ was an unknown entity in 2011 all Nigerians gave him a chance to include the SW where he won 5 out of six States . Fast forward 4 years to 2015, and after GEJ had unraveled as one of the most spectacular failure Nigerians have known as a leader, it was you Igbos and his SS folks who obdurately wanted him to carry on in power.

It is even testimony to the tribalism of Igbos, and their hate/resentment of others, that you gave GEJ more support than his own kinsmen to get yourselves the unsavory tag of the '5% people'.

Sane Nigerians chose to go with change in 2015 as it was crystal clear we could not continue with GEJ. If Buhari has not succeeded as we hope then we simply put it down to another lesson of democracy which can be rectified.

Intelligent Nigerians know that the 2015 voting and political behavior of Igbos only further damned your image as a people who can only be trusted to always embrace tribalism and hate above what is best for Nigeria as this is the only explanation for you guys wanting GEJ to continue in power after a zillion examples shows his stunning and unbelievable failings in power over 5 years!!!

What should stop is you Igbos penchant for portraying your tribalistic and hateful voting against Buhari in 2015 as farsightedness. This is why you wanted GEJ to continue, after it was clear he was leading Nigeria to the edge of the abyss, when other Nigerians, as normal and sane humans , opted for the change they believed Buhari would deliver.

2015 only demonstrated the zeal of some Nigerians to keep improving their democracy while exposing the Igbos as backward die-hard tribalists ready to endure with what will harm Nigeria all to support their own to remain in power.

That was another damning indictment against trusting Igbos with power. When you Igbos see your rejection of Buhari as "visionary" others simply see it as tribalistic acceptance and support of your own brother's failure even when you know such is bad for Nigeria. In short, Nigerians got another example of Igbo behavior that shows you don't mean well for their nation.

You are a legend. I doff my hat for you bro!

Haywhysat:
lol, you are claiming you are in kogi state, buh u aren't recognised or significant, the yorubas you are attacking are important part of kogi state, with nothing less dan 7 local government, and has a senator, house of rep and house of assembly

Lol, why did you reply the guy.

He was saying Nigeria carved out those places from Igbo, so what about the Okun guys in Kogi that speaks Yoruba as their first language that the same Nigeria carved out?. We have Dino Melaye, Smart Adeyemi, etc who are not only Yoruba by names but by their culture and they are proud to flaunt it.

Much ado over things that ain’t relevant.

If you want to thank me. Just say Kabiyesi o

mrvitalis:
If a governor can do this to a respected ruler what happens when a governor don't like an investor

The main issue here is that the governor followed the law. It is an issue of insubordination and disregard to constituted authority.

The government have the backing of the constitution to install or depose a traditional ruler that fail to meet certain requirement.

If Ganduje had removed him illegally now, then we can say investors will be worried. That’s the point I’m tryna make.

Mind you: I like Sanusi too and I’ve always cherished his ideas.

Sammy07:
Even that Deji of Akure.
Mimiko doesn't wanna remove him at first.
It's the council of kings that insist and put pressure on him to be removed.
Yet doesn't stops investors from investing In Ondo.

Yes you’re right about the Mimiko stance.

I like Sanusi personally and I’ve always loved listening to him talk. However, Ganduje have the right to depose him because Sanusi gave them the chance to use some loophole in the system against him.

He was removed:
In order to safeguard the sanctity, culture, tradition, religion and prestige of the Kano emirate", accusing the emir of "total disrespect" of institutions and the governor's office.

He was accused:
Not attending state functions and official meetings, which the government said amounted to "total insubordination".

For the above, it clearly showed he did not attend those functions and that is an act of insurbodination such that the governor have the right to remove him coz the laws empower him to do that. (Although there is always political undertone below that).

An example is you not attending all board meeting in your company continuously, will someone like that get sacked or be pampered?

Which investor will now say because the governor followed the law, I will not invest in Nigeria like Obi said.

9japride:
[color=#006600][/color]

What he's trying to say is that, our political environment is not stable. One government head can just wake up one morning and come up with unfavorable policies because they are very powerful. And as such, people's investments might just disappear overnight. Learn to read in between the lines, that's how smart people do

What is lawlessness about the removal of Sanusi? The constitution of Nigeria gives the governor the right to install and depose a king. The house of assembly were involved in the removal of Sanusi and the governor assented to it in accordance with the laws of the country.

How is that lawlessness like what Obi opined. Don’t teach me about investors and the factors that affects them coz I’m not a novice in this game.

If it had been that Sanusi was removed in a gestapo style against the laws of the land now, you can mention lawlessness.

What if there is royal recklessness like the case of the deposed Deji of Akure, will it also send away investors from the country?
