usqoh:
yes bro. I just saw previous pages now so let me comment.

@ jsleekysleeky, Mballowa, jelani01, EazyMoh and others.

You guys are complete bigot and tribalist. Someone was talking about why the nation is not progressing due to federal character, incompetence, God-fatherism and corruption, you then change it and start talking about Northerners being marginalised trying to act victim. Are you all stupidly and foolishly born in a nincompoop world. If there is any people in Nigeria crying marginalisation, it shouldn't be northerners.

You have the plentiest states, highest number of financial allocation, the highest number of leaders and presidents in the history of Nigeria, the highest number of Billionaires due to Nigeria resources and many more. You guys Connive with Shell to kill Ken saro wiwa and taking over oil blocks at the expense of Niger Deltans which you still benefit today.

And yet, you are the poorest and the most impoverished segment in Nigeria due to your bad and corrupt leaders. Instead of you the Northern youths to fight and help save your people, you all do like zombies to them.You connive with these same bad leaders further making the ordinary people to be helpless. You guys are intentionally not enlightening your people on education so they can be tools for all of you at the top so you can control them easily thereby making them beggars and Almajiris. You lie against Islam principle by using Boko harm as an Islamic tool to brainwashand kill innocent people. You also lie against Islam by marrying the poor underage helpless family trying to survive with the money they will get yet you rich and educated females never get marry early.

See I am not dmainman or dremanuel that is forming gentle man. I have not started any abuse at all. If any of you respond to me critically, I will abuse such person that the next day you will feel like commiting suicide. Better crawl back to the hole you guys came from. Apart from Mballowa who by the way gave us fake news, we never saw your comments other than this tribal stuff.
You are also the same with them

@damian. See the truth from one of the links you posted

Eligible candidates from the northern part of the country were excluded from the Presidential Special Scholarship Scheme for Innovation and Development (PRESSID), Daily Trust investigations have revealed.The PRESSID was established by the President Goodluck Jonathan-led administration in January 2012, basically to achieve the goals of Vision 20:2020 and federal government’s transformation agenda.
The scheme was meant to sponsor qualified Nigerian graduates that have obtained first class honours degrees, from any recognised university, to pursue their postgraduate studies at the top 25 universities in the world.


But Daily Trust findings have indicated that only few candidates from the North have been considered eligible in the three editions of the exercise conducted thus far.
Although Daily Trust could not get a copy of the shortlisted beneficiaries, it was gathered that a total of 204 candidates benefitted from the scheme for 2013/2014 and 2014/2015 academic sessions, while 102 students benefitted for 2015/2016 session.
It was gathered that the perceived injustice in the exercise usually begin from the selection stage where first class candidates from the North were excluded by the screening committee, allegedly on the ground that they submitted their applications late, even when they applied within the stipulated time.
Also, the announcement for the commencement of the scholarship application by the National Universities Commission (NUC) did not include as criterion that candidates must attend a popular private school, but the screening committee apply that as a condition to exclude candidates from the North, Daily Trust learnt.
A source in the committee, who did not want his name in print, said that the screening exercise used to be influenced by the office of the Secretary to the Government of Federation (SGF) and the National Universities Commission (NUC).
The source said: “Because these people were determined to disqualify northern candidates, they insisted that only candidates that graduated from popular private schools should be considered and most of the candidates from the North attended public schools. So, they were disqualified.”
He said that each geopolitical zone had a representative in the committee but that did not make the exercise credible, alleging that other members were not allowed to do their job selflessly.
The House of Representatives committee on education led by its chairman Aminu Suleiman, had on Thursday met with the Chairman of the Implementation Committee, Prof. Julius Okojie, in Abuja where he claimed that northerners were sidelined in the awards, leading to what he called “education imbalance and monumental abuse.”
He lamented that of the 104 short-listed for the scholarships this year, not a single candidate came from the North-West and North-East with the North-Central with seven slots, while the FCT did not get any.
Responding, Prof Okojie said that no considerations other than merit qualified the beneficiaries for the awards.
He said: “Unless we are saying that the criteria have to change, I will not advise that the programme should be scrapped.”
It would be recalled that the Arewa Consultative Forum (ACF) has also condemned the exercise, alleging serious foul play in the selection process.
In a communiqué, ACF has accused NUC of bias against the North in the scheme, alleging that there was a deliberate plan aimed at denying students from the North participation in the scheme.
The ACF said the federal character principles were not adhered to in the selection of beneficiaries. It, therefore, called on the NUC to ensure fairness, transparency and equity in distribution of available slots among all qualified Nigerians, irrespective of their regions.
Daily Trust gathered that when the House’s committee challenged the second edition of the exercise, last year, the committee promised to review the process but the SGF directed it to ignore complaints from all quarters and implement the scheme.
And when the committee summoned the NUC boss over the issue, he refused to appear before it. Also, when members of committee visited the commission during their oversight function, Okojie avoided it and directed his deputy to receive the members on his behalf.
About 400 scholarships have been awarded by the scheme for the 2013/2014, 2014/2015 and 2015/2016 academic sessions.
When contacted, the NUC’s spokesperson, Alhaji Ibrahim Yakasai, debunked all the allegations against the commission, saying that the award of PRESSID was based on merit. He added that historical background of candidates and their class of degrees were thoroughly scrutinized to check foul play.
He said that NUC operated an open-door policy, adding that northern stakeholders were fully involved in the process of the scholarship award.
He added: “A committee was set up which involved professors from all the six geopolitical zones, and even the exams were computer-based. So many entries were made and the best were selected.”

I learned that the much publicized non existing invitation list was later found to have been padded to exclude Jonathan's name by the National Assembly. Others say, his gullible supporters mistake Ogun for Washington DC and OBJ for Trump. What a mistake!

panachuku:
Some believe it is glorious to die this way. Pls does dis mk sensehuh
It is the understanding that matters. It's just like this:
" Muslims prefer to die in a state desired by God which is by worshiping him. Performing hajj in Mecca is an important worship in the sight of Allah. Therefore a Muslim will rather die worshiping Allah than the death of some people in d beer parlour or ashawo room.
IslamRe: Hajj Stampede: Things You Need To Know by maikant(m): 8:27pm On Sep 27, 2015
Those Christians that post here shows that they have declared they are Muslims just because they want to make bad comments to Islam. Really Islam have enemies and we know it will have. We have known the truth to harbour enemies of progress. May Allah guide us.
As for those who does not understand deing in Mecca is like going to paradise. E.g Just think of a person that dies worshiping God and a person that dies in beer parlour drinking or ashawo room while doing it. Can they be equal?
