MrPresident1:


I said the truth.

By the way, are you the Voltron of the Igbo race, defender of the universe?

pgiddy:
Education is a long term investment, and Pressid is a right investment if continued will yield a great result for Nigeria. Countries like China, Germany and d rest all started with schemes like this and we can see the level they have gone technologically. Even tho i am a fan of Buhari, but pls Mr Buhari if there is any legacy of Jonathan u shld continue, I will implore u to continue the pressid scheme

ERAKAMUS:
Hahahaha sai fake Change.

speedyGonzales:
Great! best president ever! killing anything that could help poor Nigerians!

neocortex:
For more than two decades, China and India have sent thousands
of students to the west for higher education, they are
now reaping the benefits of those initiatives.

It is wrong for Buhari to scrap PRESSID for political
reasons. The program if sustained has the potential to
place Nigeria into the league of industrial and scientific
powerhouses.

CCsurplus007:



God bless you. To even imagine that the Sultan of Sokoto repeatedly called for the scholarship to be scrapped leaves little to be desired. China and India with their top ranked schools still sends her citizens to Usa, Canada and the Uk for studies. Effective technology transfer is always the goal. We have a long way to go in this country

Truckpusher:
We said it

Iamoilprince:
they had better cancel it. Most people that benefitted from the scholarship were graduates from Convenant University and other private universities. Their sponsors can even afford the tuition.

project7:

This man was rejected even as he meant well for Nigerians. This statement will be remembered for a long time to come. I'm afraid GEJ may be the last president of Nigeria.

TellingItAsItIs:
Buhari is more clueless than i imagined.
With the growing clamour for the disintegration of this country,i can't believe he deemed it fit to cancel this scholarship programme just because majority of the beneficiaries are southerners.
No nation progresses on Quota system,the north is slowing down the progress of the south.Disintegration is the only solution to this country lest we keep on moving in circles.

mikolo80:
how many poor Nigerians do you know that benefited from this scheme.
no be Padi Padi dem chudren dem de share the scholarship among

Pavarottii:
Guy how do I get this pic? Been looking for it.

anangboy:


Your ignorance is astounding - even more so not only because its voluntary but because you go to such great length to preserve it. Is the PRESSID scheme by quota system? If as you say that there hasn't been up to 1% of northerners who have been beneficiaries and you blame it on a region or an individual then it clearly means you have no idea what the pressid scheme is and this betrays your lack of any sort of critical thought.

There is an astounding gap between western technologies and whatever we have here. "Internet of things", "smart grid", "smart cities" etc are not very common concepts here but these are things my cousin who is a beneficiary of this scheme is grateful to be involved in first hand. I had to sign up to MIT to try to be abreast in my field of computer & electronics engineering.Imagine the immense value these cutting edge advances in science & engineering can impact in the life of every child with a dream.

The purpose of life is a life with a purpose and competitive education is the guiding light.

MrPresident1:


Wallahi tallahi, if I give you e-slap your destiny go reset.

onlysuccess:

nigerianvenom:


One of friend is a beneficiary of the maiden edition or the second edition.
And hes from osun state, he is in scotland and almost rounding up. Prior to election, i asked him who he would av voted for if he were in Nigeria, he said - buhari, i then asked why and he said gej lacked d will power to fight corruption.
I laugh off.
I just sent him this link

eazydon:


I'm sure your brain is not functioning

Splashme:
How did Nigeria end up with
this baboon in Aso Rock?

MrPresident1:


anuofia!

arafone:
we have enough universities here in Nigeria.I don't see any reason for scholarship to study abroad

CCsurplus007:


So wike is now igbo? you amaze me bro. Why did portharcout and bayelsa indigenes not dominate any of the three editions? you also say a shoddy process of selection when your scores are displayed almost immediately you click submit.

EazyMoh:

I never said Wike was the minister during the first batch, I said "held sway" we all know he was more powerful than the Hajiya, no thanks to his rapport with Madam Patience.
I also never mentioned the stats for the first two batches, I only mentioned the last which the Igbos dominated, and which you yourself confirm. Point is no justification could be given why for three consecutive batches not 1% northerners are deemed fit to qualify by using a shoddy process of selection.
