Later on, the Nigerian federal government through the minister of youth and sports, Sunday Dare, on Monday, July 27, said the federal government will give her a scholarship. Sunday asked @ThepreciousAda to quickly share her contact details for the facilitation of the scholarship.

Yes, that is how it should be.

Anything you do, do it with genuine interest and God will come to your aid.

Unlike some idiots who will join some metals or woods together, then his fellow idiots take pictures/videos, upload same on social media and start screaming "rare talent", "Nigerians are genius", "govt should come to his aid" etc.

Imagine one idiot "invented water generator", another one "invented burner that uses feaces" and illiterates started screaming Buhari should come to his aid.

Popoopla Esther, you really make your people and indeed Nigerians proud. Hopefully, this scholarship doesn't turn out to be audio. Because I recall this is the same ministry that promised 10k monthly stipends to the mother of the football legend, Rashidi Yekini, but failed.

The only thing which is wrong with the picture remains her attire for the job. She should have worn a denim bib and metal toe leather boot. I have already fallen in love with this young girl. A fallen wrench can cut off a toe. Why Nigerians are always try to throw paper academia to professional session?

Cammo:
Kudos, girl! Your mom should be proud of you!
If this type comes out and says she's a feminist I'll listen. Not all these smelly-pant gold-diggers looking for rich men and male celebrities to accuse of rape and their jobless, olosho asslickers on Nairaland.
