Where did you get this information ??!

They have all the information needed, why can't everything be done online?

Why are they quiet about the worth of the scholarship?

You will be surprised the things you will see during the documentation. They are more interested in your admission letter to decide if to award you complete years (2 years for MSc or 3 years for Ph.D.) or reduce the number of years.

But your profile will show online that you've received a complete scholarship.

Fraud and corruption.

Its true, prevous Scholars have been complaining thats what they do, thats why they threatened us with messages in our telegram. The truth is that you can never complain to anywhere, if if you do you will not be attended to or even replied. Very unfortunate I never knew ptdf is this bad

I am optimistic that one day the entire process will be inline with Global standards. Of course, when PTDF will look at the mode of operation of foreign scholarship boards and reengineer its processes.
For now, what I dislike the most is the threats and tune of PTDF communications. The 'full of threat communications' do not showcase current day civilization. They sound autocratic and dictatorial, as if the money will be paid from the personal pockets of the staff sending such messages.
PTDF remains parastatal of the FG!

It has happened and will continue to happen because previous scholars have refused to speak out and are okay been what is being paid to them.

If we don't make noise, same fate will befall us. They've deliberately taken out a year from the scholarship, its left for us to complain or lose. Complain not to PTDF but raise voice for everyone to hear. Then they will retrace their steps

It's better will make it known to the public and let them know everyone knows. They will be scared of repeating it.

Even the Scholarship comes with a laptop. But you would be told but you would never see any but it would be on their record that you have been given a laptop. Fraud fraud!

The best thing to do is to start rising alarm before the documentation so that they will know everyone is watching.

This with connection to media houses, its time we need such connection.

Let it be published such that everyone will read and questions will be asked.

That is why we are calling for the transparency of the entire process.
They should emulate foreign scholarship bodies by stating the worth of the benefits/entitlements during the call for application.
We keep hearing various amounts(although they can be rumour).

First, we have to make our complaint known.
Social media is a powerful tool and most importantly if we can lay hand on a past award letter (any one which reflects one year for msc or 2 years for phd) we can start from there

Some of awardees have even finished the program already yet the induction has not even taken place talk more of the payment. I do not know if there is any WhatsApp group already but the awardees need to act, not just expressing their grievances here on nairaland. If there is a WhatsApp group, what and what have they discussed or planned to do in this regard? It could start from making a post on all the social media platforms. Each awardee would share the post and from there, the news would spread. Getting PTDF scholarship is not easy, starting with the rigorous application process to travelling miles for the interview etc. At the end, it would become stories. Covid 19 can never be an excuse because the money had already been budgeted for. This is 2018/2019 scholarship we are talking about so Covid 19 can not affect it. Action is what is needed and not just mere talks in a little space here on nairaland

The British High Commission in Nigeria says it will soon begin to receive visa applications from Nigerians willing to travel to the United Kingdom.

The Commission noted that Nigerians hoping to visit the UK could do so once international flights resume in Nigeria.

The Federal Government had in March shut the country’s airspace to domestic and international flights as part of measures to curb the spread of the coronavirus pandemic.

However, with the resumption of domestic flights on Wednesday, Nigerians are in high spirits, expecting the government to okay the restart of international flights.

In a statement on Thursday, the British High Commission in Abuja said visa application centres which were initially suspended due to the pandemic would reopen “when it is safe to do”.

The statement read, “We know there are many Nigerian nationals hoping to travel to the UK when flights resume, both for employment and to see family members.

“UKVI are working closely with TSL contact, our commercial partner, to reopen visa application centres that were suspended due to COVID-19.

“UK visa application centres are reopening in phased manner globally when it is safe to do so and when we can operate an effective service.

“TSL contact are putting appropriate measures in place and working hard to reopen in Nigeria. We will share details of when VACs will reopen soon.”

Jibboy1,
Please this thread is solely meant for discussions on PTDF scholarship.
I don't know why you are trying to distract us.
Please do not be an enemy to the truth or you will be hidden from the truth.
My advice, thanks!

Good one Bro.
I sugeest we start another thread specifically for LSS 2018/2019 applicants.
Draw the attention of many awardees there so that whenever a reasonable post is made, we will have enough people to share it on their social media platforms.
By so doing, FG will hear our voices.
My suggestion though!
