ia2me:

What of 2014/2015 academic session? Because i don't seem to understand

Its a backdate on the session from the sponsor (SPDC) and administrator (Dragnet).
Same goes for Snepco scholarship ( check http://www.scholarship-nigeria.com/2014/10/2013-2014-snepco-national-merit.html )
I think the most important thing is to understand that the award opens and closes this year (2014) and winners will start receiving their disbursements next year.

Unfortunately, I havn't been following up on them lately. Do you know if any 2011/2012 awardee has been paid?

Catalyst007: GTB IMO are all Bastard Fraudsters who are highly INCOMPETENT. Could U believe that they have been telling me come 2day, come 2morrow because of website error, only for me to Pressure the FOOLS today & they made calls and found out the Hadn't been using a functioning site... As if data isn't enough, they answered some girls that came after me, not processing my own (Because I was harsh on them). I've already spent N 20,000.00 on transport just for a N100,000.00 Scholarship. Tomorrow is the Final SHOWDOWN!!!!!!!!!!

samley19: sir olsey... men. i missd u big tym... Shell.hsnt paid. wat du u fink is wrng sir.. 'sad'

Thanks Samley19, I am equally stunned at Shell's slow pace in the past year. I think this has to do with either (or both) the just-ended ASUU strike or SPDC's internal management and budget cycle.
Apologies for slightly deviating from thread topic.
Success to everyone on MUSTE.
