At this rate, second week in September, names of beneficiaries yet to be announce, schools have resumed and no information whatsoever from NDDC. It is just not ideal anymore.

Some of us already in Canada and even though we ever fit pay complete fees, school and country have been treating us nice. Naija is always making life look so hard. We are far from progress in Nigeria. Nobody to even explain the reason for the delay, no form of communication. They make it look like they are doing us a favour with what belongs to us. They can't even treat their own children like this, they will use our money to bring them here and give them the best with our nations wealth. Its bullshit Man!!! They don't really care about us, they don't. I sorry for my country, honestly. A day will come, one very day wen hungry men go eat up all this thief's for our country.

I greet you all with the fear of God!

I know; hopes are high, anxiety level is almost 100%, blood pressure is kicking from one end, you want to get updated by every means, you can't eat anymore because anxiety has taken up the space for food, your concentration is on the high side, every seconds you want to refresh your browser to see if there is a new post, every seconds you are playing with your phone just to be at alert when you'll receive the "miracle-sms", you want to be the first person to inform your friends about the good news, you now move around with your phone charger just to avoid a phone blackout. The truth is; YOUR MIRACLE-SMS WILL COME!

From my calculations 2nd-week starts from Monday the 12th of September 2016. But be that as it may, if by tomorrow, Wednesday you don't hear of an alert from anywhere; then condition your mind, for next week is the " Miracle-week" for "Miracle-sms"

FOR THOSE TRAVELING THIS SEPTEMBER:

You will arrive a bit late in the UK, you will arrive when your mates have already started with their lectures, assignments, group-projects. But don't panic!

MY ADVICE:

Go through your university's departmental portal again, look for the courses you will be offering in this 1st-semester, get them and start studying ahead.

N/B:
There will be no makeup class for your late coming, lecturer no send you msg, department doesn't care. All they need is results.

So be ahead of your class so that your anxiety level will be normal when you arrived in the UK.
#BeAheadOfYourClass....

The fact remains; by the special Grace of God you'll all get your "Miracle-sms"....

Again, I greet you all with the fear and power of God.
PEACE!

Thanks for your comment. A few weeks ago, you needed volunteers to join you to NDDC office in PH. Please, can you tell this hounorable house the outcome of that meeting??

Why didn't you get me a PM if you had interest for the outcome?

The truth is nobody showed up.. Nobody showed interest, nobody PM me... Nobody!

Permit me;


Our people are afraid of nothing... Is as bad as that..!!

But wait until next week... Let's see what happens... Then you'll hear from me.

Good day...


I was interested but I don't stay anywhere close to the South South. All the same, thanks for your updates.

Good morning respected people… I greet you all!!!

I HAVE A PLAN AND I WOULD WANT YOUR ADVICE……..

While we wait for next week to come which to me is a bit risky. Let’s do it now, this week against next week so that before next week we should start getting results.

THIS IS WHAT I WANT…..

I want us to push the hand of the commission, NDDC, to bring out the list next week…!!!! HOW?

THIS IS HOW:

I have a letter I have written stating why the delay in releasing the list, what is happening at the commission level,
schools in the UK have resumed but NDDC prospective scholars are still in Nigeria nothing yet.

SO FOR THAT, THIS IS MY TAKE:

1. Everybody should create a TWITTER handle account. Use the account and share the letter with;
• Asari Dokubo
• Linda Ikeji
• NDDC MD-Designate Nsima Udo Ekere
• Punch, Vanguard, This Day twitter handles…
• NDDC Acting-MD, Ibim Semenitari

2. Everybody with a FACEBOOK ACCOUNT Should do this:
• Post on Asari Dokubo Facebook Page
• Post on NDDC Facebook Page
• Post on Hon. Rotimi Chibuike Amaechi (Min. Of Transportation)
• Acting – MD NDDC, Ibim Semenitari Facebook Page.
• Share with the following media houses on their Facebook Page (Today fm 95.1, Rhythm, Nigeria-Info, Wazobia fm).
• Share with every other media houses you feel should see our message
• Share with anybody you know is big to hear us

3. Share this letter until opposition will see it, Critics will see it, Activist will see it, Humanitarian Bodies will see it, Concern NDDC Stake-
Holders will see it… Don’t Stop until we get an ANSWER, Don’t Stop Until They Hear us… DON’T STOP!!!!!!!!!!!!!

To this end I have said too much, it is time to put all to ACTION…

NOTE:
Please before you do all these take note of the following…..

1. Create a new Facebook Account, Twitter Account for this purpose
2. No pictures
3. No Phone Numbers
4. Avoid being traced
5. Remain Anonymous…..


After these exercise I assure you, you will feel better for yourself….

THE QUESTION IS;
ARE WE READY?

I know 100+ persons are seeing this post. Please when you get this letter do as we have discussed.

But before the letter is passed on to this forum, I want to hear from the HOUSE.
ARE WE OK WITH THE IDEA?

I need Contributions and advice……

Again, Peace be unto you all……….


let's see the content of the letter first.. the content will determine our response
Re: NDDC 2016 Postgraduate Foreign Scholarship Application Commences by mechhengr(m): 11:39am On Sep 08, 2016
with all due respect, i dont think everything should be done in form of a protest. even if it was to get to that point, u must have exhausted all other options. & right now i will like to ask u what else u have done to reach out to NDDC, its consultant, anyone on the status of the scholarship. furthermore no one is certain of having his name on the final list. some one earlier suggested to have a group of people go to NDDC to make enquiries. i think this is a more pragmatic approach. its too early to get into a fight. thank u.

Whilst I understand that we all are eager for the list to be released, I don't think it's a good idea to resort to social media as I doubt if it will perturb NDDC at all. I also don't think Asari, Amaechi, Ikeji etc. should be involved - what's the point? No one knows for sure if their names will be on the list so we really don't have the impetus to push things that far.

Also, I heard (I am not sure o!) that the list would not be released by the outgoing board, so we may have to wait till the new MD and board members resume office. Senate will have to clear the new board first and since senate will resume from their ageless recess mid-next week we cannot expect the list to be out sooner. Please don't get me wrong, I wish the list was already out but it's very optimistic to hope that it will be out within next two weeks since senate will have to clear the new board and they will need some time to settle in to office.

In summary, please bin the idea of using facebook and twitter and involving irrelevant parties to our plight. Secondly, hope for the list to be out soon (within 2 weeks) but have contingency plans in place and more realistically expect it by month end at the earliest.

Hello All,

For me, I don't think we should engage in a media war with them.
If I can get other volunteers to work with so we can visit their office tomorrow Friday the 9th of September at Aba road and request to see the NDDC Director of Education.

I don't know how gaining access will be like considering the full squad of policemen they have at their gate.

He dat goes to equity should go with clean hands bro! even if u take NDDC to court now over the delayed list,am sure our case wil be stricken out for lack of merit!! we are still mere applicants for now not scholars! what we should do now is to appeal to NDDC directly to consider our plight, to consider the fact that some of us paid expensive application fees, transcript, Tofel, etc for the admission and may loose out over the delay, and some oda appeasing words. this can be achieved through visit or official letter signed by those around ph or within de region. or better still flood their phone numbers with text msgs as wel as their Twitter and facebook accounts. if we have anybdy at de "top" in addition dat can call NDDC on de matter and ask dem ha fa? dat wil be okay too. Que Sera Sera!!!!

It is nice to see someone being assertive. Nice one bro but frankly the logic behind the copying of asari and Linda is beyond me. That is a move a stranded scholar would make not a prospective one. The visit and mails would do for now. Thanks again for the effort.

My Good people...

Is not about fighting...Is not about if we should take them to court...Is not about, Oh! we are still applicant. If you look it like that it will remain like that, If you say you are on the side of "After-all you're not sure if your name is on the list so why should you start fighting?" Then You are wrong!!! We are not fighting...Maybe they have forgotten people are waiting for them and is time to remind them... IS LIKE A REMINDER CALL.

We've waited too long, schools would soon commence, alot has happened and still happening...

It is not fighting, it is called speaking out.
Our problem in Africa is "FEAR OF THE UNKNOWN". It never allows us to "TRY". But when we see and hear of people who tried we admirer them, we want to be like them.

I remember few weeks ago, our brothers in the UK went to the media to protest about their ALLOWANCE. Some criticized them, I follow to criticize them. But their struggle paid-off, it was not long they were answered to.

I remembered earlier in June, 2016, NDDC released the list of shortlisted candidates for the then written exams. Do you want to know why that list was released to the public? There were critics from opposition...It forced them to come out clear.

We need to push...!!!!

For God sake! I know so many persons should be halted for this exercise because of "You dey wait for NDDC" to bring out list.

THIS IS IT:

You want to wait on Senate to sit before they can screen the MD-Designate?
You want to wait on the Ag -MD to handover to the Incoming Management?

Hmmm...In as much as is a group thing, I wouldn't say much, i will leave it at that..
But bliv me, if we shake them a bit, post one or two messages around results will fall-out...Who knows? Maybe next week or sooner

After-all they dont know anybody....Why dont we just shake them a little? no harm!


On the contrary, i will take heed to your advice....

Lets keep watching...

PEACE BE STILL.....

I take your stand on this. It's not about whether ones name is on the list or not. considering that schools have already opened and lectures may have started, some of us forget that we need time and money to gather and take care of other things as regard traveling and all. I suggest that u drop the proposed letter, let's criticize its contents rather than kicking against the idea of writing a letter that we don't even know its contents.

I'll Pm u right away

@Dneroomero and others

I strongly kick against writing any letter or any protest. Guys, NDDC is not under any obligation to grant us scholarship. Besides, we are only "prospective" scholars. They can even cancel the entire process with just a simple excuse that the commission doesn't have money.

Please, let's be very careful about the things we write on this platform. People from the commission maybe watching. Patience is a virtue. Let's all imbibe patience as we wait on the commission to conclude the process. A visit to the commission by two prospective scholars living in PH wouldn't be a bad idea but NOT writing letter or posting thing anywhere.
