Justice For Toochukwu Okafor by jay2pee(m): 5:39am On Dec 22, 2017
This is fraud: NNPC GMD must offer scholarship to Okafor the way they offered Al-Amin

Few days ago, social media was ablaze with the celebration of Tochukwu Okafor who carted away EVERY award in Engineering from UNIBEN namely:

Best Graduating Student, University of Benin. — Dean’s Prize to the Best Graduating Student in academic performance, Faculty of Engineering.‎ ‎— Department Prize to the Best Graduating Student, Department of Electrical/Electronic Engineering, Faculty of Engineering. — Nigerian Society of Engineers Prize to the Best Overall Graduating Student in the Faculty of Engineering. — Arch. Aminu Abubakar Prize to the Best Graduating Student in the Department of Electrical/Electronic Engineering, Faculty of Engineering. ‎— Nicholas and Victoria Osifo Memorial Scholarship to the Best Graduating Student in Engineering.

He graduated with a stunning 4.95CGPA in almighty Engineering

Days after, Al-amin Bugaje from faraway ‪Ahmadu Bello University Zaria (ABU) was named overall best student with 4.93 CGPA from Electrical Engineering Department, Faculty of Engineering.

He was IMMEDIATELY offered scholarship up to PhD, by the GMD of NNPC, Mr Maikantu Baru in any university of his choice in the world.

Yet Tochukwu who graduated with a higher CGPA was ignored by the GMD. Both of them graduated in Electrical Engineering, so it can't be said that one merits it than the other.

The money that will be used to send Al-Amin to the best university in the world will not come from the GMD private purse but NNPC. It is fraudulent and corrupt to send the Hausa graduate abroad while leaving the one with higher CGPA to remain with only B.Eng. It is totally unacceptable.

I call on Nigerians to trend and see that justice is done to Tochukwu by NNPC. No one is a second class citizen in Nigeria even though a fulani man may be the one on the seat of power and another fulani man as NNPC boss.

What is good for Al-Amin is good for Tochukwu.

Na beg I dey beg una. Let us trend this till it gets everywhere and Tochukwu gets his dues.

When CAN said Northern Christians and Southern students are being refused university admission/ teaching jobs based on their religion, some people came here to deny it but now you can see clear manifestation.

God help Nigeria
