I don't want to get into the issue between u and d guy
But
U called him an attention seeker
That in itself is insulting


Pls my apologies
M really sorry
M not feeling fine

You are funny bro ..... Wo, I'm sorry too, I did that on retaliation.

Make nna nor vex
I'm not feeling fine too (tbh), just recovered.

No one is seeking attention here. Of course am a new awardee that doesn't mean that I never have access to receive information from old awardee around me.. I followed d advice given to me by an old awardee like u.. He even showed me d copy they were given which is same has this year.. moreover I already have my receipt confirmation.. Everyone has d right to voice out their opinions... am just speaking from my own perspective which has worked out for me... This is already gone though.. Coz I bliv everyone has submitted now.. .. what should be on our mind now is when d payment will land.. I never mean any feud with u bro.. am a gentleman.. am just talking on what has worked for me and what has worked for an old awardee like u... am sorry.. Cool

Congrats bro, me and you nor get beef.

You said everyone is entitled to his opinion, correct, buh on a low, you subtly discredited me first. You would have just said it worked for you that way without condemning what's proper or how things ought to be done bro. One love!

Profjay97:
Actually concerning d issue of hard copy submission.. I guess someone gave a wrong advice here.. I hope have seen this info b4 this time.. One of d main reason d soft copy was sent to us is to send it as hardcopy back to them if d hardcopy didn't reach us on time.. Guys has always been doing that over the years. The printed soft copy has always been same with d hard one's.. Someone was even talking about thicker paper..pls let's be sure of info b4 putting it online. Try to always affirm from d predecessors... but since u guys Already scanned back ur soft copy to them b4 d deadline... No need to panic.... I got my confirmation mail 3 weeks ago. and I bliv everyone will receive theirs b4 the end of this month..

Attention seeker!

Guys, this poster is as newbie as you are! So, it's not that s/he knows much more than you.

As an older awardee, I will always advise playing by the rules, even beyond here. There's nowhere Total would have stated or expected that you sent your printed acceptance form to them if they dilly-dallied with the hard one. Rather, it's the other way round because they know the hard copy might not get to you on time. The hard copy is the original document, and just like the soft copy, you ought to assent to the original document likewise.

And about the thickness or no thickness of paper, that just further proves my senior status. Fine, your set received a softer document but that shouldn't constitute any problem here. Play by the rules and be guarded!

emarc94:
How did you know that it was rejected? Or maybe you didn't send through registered courier.

Well said ...

Lmessi, mail Total about this turn of event. Something is fishy

Lmessi:
So it turns out that I have received mine, ortarico, the hard copy looks exactly like the soft copy...i thought it was meant to be harder

Really?!

Well since that was what you received, it's all good abi.

It's been a while guys. Congrats, like I told you that things would fall in place.

LordKingsley:
How many people usually qualify for this scholarship nationwide?

Thousands are called but few are chosen. That's the standard bro.

Lmessi:
Sorry, I meant soft copy

Sure, it must have got to them.

emarc94:
Actually,a friend has sent a completed hard copy of the printed scanned copy to them today and has also urged me to do so, which I will first thing tomorrow morning. He is actually doing that because a counselor at our students affairs advised him to. Should I really not do so? Pls ur reply is urgently needed.

Bro, pls don't. Rather mail them about it as you're worried. That guy's unsystematic submission would still end up as thrash. Mark my words.
Another thing to note is that the submission of the hard copy doesn't have any deadline, it's only the soft.

Lmessi:
Little actually...

As it came to my mind at first.

Lmessi:
Thx for the reply as well, really appreciated but the deadline is almost over, and the hard-copy hasn't arrived, isn't that a source of worry, plus the I am even bothered about them not confirming the mail

Don't be worried chief. All will still fall in place las las.

You haven't answered. That 'L' acronym on your nick stands for what, Little or the Lionel?

emarc94:
Thanks 4 d reply,boss. Two months is too long sha. There's just about a week b4 the deadline and I'm seeing no sign of hard copy coming on time. Cant we just send a printed hard copy of the scanned soft copy, duly completed, back to them through a courier?

No oo, don't do that. The hard copy coming is a thick paper also officially subscribed.
I said two months max, you could receive it earlier than that. I made that assumption because of documentation delays.

You are always welcome on my replies bro.

Wow!
First of all, I want to congratulate you for emerging successful. Winning paid scholarships that have significant financial reward like NNPC/TOTAL could enrich you as students.

To your question emarc94, just chill ehn, the money will soon come-in after all documentations have been done. First payment usually occurs after two months max of the award list publication. They will send a confirmation mail upon receipt. It could take them some days tho, but they'll surely reply.

Lmessi (Little Messi, I think ), you still have to be patient till the hard one arrives. It'd be sent through courier, so it doesn't get dispatched almost immediately as the soft one.

Cheers.

Ees like we've got no winners here on nairaland

It comprehensively means that you successfully made it to the entry level training bro

akins56:
I'm serving Sokoto too.... Where in Sokoto you at?

Oh, we!

Giginya Barracks, Dange-Shuni LGA. What about you?

Tizzie:
Hello all, good evening. Who else got this ?

I got it today as well. But my own problem now is that I am currently serving in Sokoto State. I don't know what decision to make right now, I'm perplexed. I even have two other offers from blue chip companies all in Lagos this week.

Thank God for their lives ... Looks like Wamakko road. Currently serving in the state; it is like a split from the main Nigeria - the harsh weather and backward civilization .

Ees like y'll have been paid. I'm yet to receive from them oo.

Pls is there somebody else?

They've started paying o , a colleague of mine just received hers.

Lexmane:
MAYBE it's June they're gonna pay this year too, just like last year. So we have to wait for at least 2 more months.
But then, I remember they asked us to send in our results this time last year, April 1 to be precise.

That's true bro. However, I pray they don't default on this year's like some other schemes do after paying once or twice.

Abeg when total go pay my eye don dey road o.

Proflere:
And so? I wrote ECN427(Advanced Mathematical Economics) in Unilag last year, we were 9 in number inside a hall that has a sitting capacity of over a hundred student and we were given 7 invigilators( like say na exam to enter heaven we dey write)...

Ortarico come and tell them...

Gee, no be lie ooo ... but Alhamdulillah, it's done and dusted!

Ortarico:
Greetings NLanders,
I am seeking for concise explanations or first
hand enlightenment on how Bond Rates/Coupons
are being operationalized Over The counter
(OTC) trade, particularly from investors in
government bonds. How do they induce as well
as discourage your investment in terms of their
expected yields?

I am in dire need of explanations as they would
go a long way in my project writing, thanks.

PS: I'm also sourcing for journals/articles on its
dynamics with inflation. I'll be glad if you can be
of help in this regard.

Yipee! Thanks everyone for your contributions on my project especially @being for his invaluable input. I got a distinction in it and it was requested for scholarly publication. Thank you so much people of God!

I just got paid!
