Pls when is the closing Date?

I sincerely hope that the scholarship will not go to only the families, friends and concubines of buhari, osinbajo, tinubu, atiku. Fashola and the rest political vampires as in the case of CBN. Don't trust Nigerian politicians, even the so called christians amongst them who pretends to be holier than Jesus.

Lool. .If na saraki matter now dis for don enter page 10. .but as na 4 pple with 4.0 gap, c as dem lock up..d gp of many noise makers on nairaland no fit even flash MTN line...

This scholarship is genuine. I was a beneficiary in 2008/2009 academic session. You must be really good and truthful in answering questions in the exam to get it. It is purely based on merit (speaking from my experience)

Don't really like the idea of forwarding the form via the HOD's office. All those SECs go dey use person do shakara now

Op pls, can u shed more light on LETTER FROM STATE OR LOCAL GOVERNMENT. R u refering to state of origin

I really appreciate this trend; i have been following this scholarship since last year because it is the only scholarship opportunity open to 500 level students and i only missed it last year because the exams were written only in bayelsa (Bros Jona) instead of all state capitals.

But this year getting the form seems to be the problem as my registrar according to the secretary says the form has not been made available to them... this exam is always written in april so i also made enquires at UNIBEN and the same thing was said. I am an Elect/elect Engr. student of FUOYE and have sent messages to the FSB but no replies.

So if anyone has gotten the form from their registrar, He or She should please inform me. Thanks.

All this long story is just formality. You and I know that when the eventual scholarship list is out, it would be littered with names like Adamu, Mustapha, Mohammed etc. Even the dunce zombies here wouldn't even get as much as a consideration for their blind loyalty

I was a beneficiary from the year 2011 to 2015. I did not know anybody and I would say it was by merit. I and a close pal were the awardees in my set
