So na you I dey dey waste my energy on sef?

Mtchewwwww.....

the energy you expended in finding this picture, if you put a quarter of it in the discussion, we'd be halfway into solving the menace of poverty and starvation ravaging your people. The statement still is:

The gross low IQ of northerners is the direct cause of underdevelopment of the region. Disprove!

I'll give you a tip: focus on the argument, not me

If I filled 500 job applications, received zero interview invites and had to wake up and look at that face in the mirror, I'd be a bitter frustrated sourpuss too. His rancour is excused.

LSS

I have no idea. There's a separate thread for the LSS scheme. If no one here knows you can try asking there.

I tell you my brother These ones are lost cases. Upon all the spoon-feeding and undue privileges, look at them .
They are dead weights I tell you, and there's just one thing to be done...cut them off!!!

Good morning to you all.

I have been reading through all your comments and one important thing I like you to bear in mind is, no matter how intelligent a group of people are, rapid development will only be evident if their policy makers can properly aggregate their intelligence and create an enabling environment for intelligent people to thrive.

My little contribution.

The gross low IQ of northerners is the direct cause of underdevelopment of the region. Disprove!

what's this one saying? just shut up man.

Lol...so you don't even know anything about research and you are here ranting rubbish. I hve gone through the complete article of the abstract u shared and was just waiting for u to answer those my questions, I for show you SHEGE. Claiming local champion in ur cubicle (community) and think the blogosphere is where u can also do that. Knowledge is deep and exceeds any individual understanding, don't underestimate any region, tribe or individual that's my general advice.
Consequently, I will not engage u in any further discussion. @Liebermann, @jlomz mek we 4get am abeg. Na things wey him cram mek 1st class or 2:1 dey deceive am...

That retort of his sounds like something a child would say.

He keeps calling the north underdeveloped as if there's any region in this country thats not underdeveloped. Him being from the south east especially. You gave the most apt summation for him "local champion".

As you can see, I'm already ignoring the dolt. I just feel bad for all the people who have to read all the vitriol thats been posted on a thread meant to be about something else.

1b8m:
this is actually childish! Guy can you just come off this.

You this yabani, I don't have your time . You are just an aboki trying to feel funky! Please stop patronizing me by your mentions. Now scram! Muturu!

For the records I am a 2nd year PhD student with 3 publications on Elsevier. I wont condescend to talking research/statistical methods with you twa*t. Every time you mention me I lose virtue, can you kindly not do that again?

Taking a break from this thread until sanity returns.

I hope the noise continues after successful candidates have been shortlisted.

oh is that your heartache? I didn't call the north underdeveloped na, researchers did based on empirical findings. Ah kpele o ma binu! I will warn Wikipedia to remove you from one of the most poverty ravished disease infested regions in the world.

But yet I will advice, after ptdf of course spoonfeeds you with the scholarship, forget how they tell you to focus on oil gas...bro! Centre your research on how to alleviate poverty in your region. This is from one black man to another

Happy Sunday scholars,

I applied for both ptdf oversea scholarship (OSS) and ptdf ln-country scholarship ( Iss).

I did ptdf oversea scholarship (OSS) interview last week. I got shortlisted for incountry scholarship ( Iss) interview as well.

Please, what are the possible implications of attending both interviews? Should I ignore Iss interview?

I hope this helps

Thanks alot for the speedy reply,i really appreciate it. If someone succeeds in getting the scholarship that means it must be differed for next year then? or will they allow you to chose similar course in the same school,or will u be forced to use your second and third choice? thanks again.Also iam open for any advice you might have

Good day House, Please would it be possible to get the virtual interview rescheduled?

If anyone has an idea/experience in this area kindly assist with necessary information/advice. Thank you.

I was unable to attend mine due to discrepancies in date and time. I am an OSS Msc applicant.

Apply for a different course related to this at the same school or a different course listed by ptdf. I think they'll allow it especially since you have a valid reason.

I think second and third choices should work here...IMO

Yes I was asked. My 1st choice is University of Glasgow course : cyber security ,sadly they won't offer that course during this session.

Based on the shortlisted list, I noticed that FGM selection is very low as that of UK for both MSC and PhD. It slaps really hard o.

Anyway, my state has 30 names for FGM MSc while there are 111 names for UK MSc. For PhD list, my state has 6 names for FGM, while there are 29 names for UK. The disparity is just too much.

And again guys, I'd like to point out that in as much as we are competing from scholars from our respective states, we should focus on scholars from our local governments as well cos it matters. As far as I'm aware, there's competition b/w people that are from the same LG's as you cos it is a determinant in selection for the award because they want every LG to be represented.

Take for instance, a LG of a state having just 2 people will be less competitive than a LG of the same state having 7 -12 people.

That's just my little cent

The final list only follows state factor not LGA.

I am very sure you would have loved to choose F/G/M, especially for your PhD.

Note that UK and FGM have the same number of slots. Those PhD guys that choose are lucky. 3 people out of 6 will win. That is even if all the 6 participate in the interview. Imagine if only 3 people attend the interview. That is 3 automatic slots irrespective of their performance.

Masters have 5 winners while PhD have 3 winners in each for both UK and F/G/M respectively.

But hope they asked you how cyber security relates to oil and gas? Any is it not available in Nigeria universities?
