ArewaWarrior:There are thousands of first class graduates in the country, they have to go through a series of tests to select the best 100 from the thousands. Those you saw there are the best 100 of the first class graduates that applied. Hope you understand now? Your poor reasoning already shows why northern names are few there. Did you expect all the first class graduates in the country to be in a list of 100? 6 Likes |

The Presidential Special Scholarship Scheme for Innovation and Development has recommended 102 persons for President Goodluck Jonathan’s approval for the award of foreign scholarships for the 2015/2016 academic session. This is contained in an update on the scheme as presented by its panel Chairman, Prof. Julius Okojie, during a closed-door session with Jonathan at the Presidential Villa, Abuja on Monday. Our correspondent exclusively obtained a copy of the document. According to the document, the 102 comprise 78 males and 24 females. Okojie explained that the successful candidates were from the 2,840 applications and out of the 940 persons shortlisted for an aptitude test, which took place last December 8. He recalled that in the first edition, which was for the 2012/2013 session, scholarships were awarded to 101 scholars, comprising 81 males and 20 females, including one physically challenged beneficiary. He stated that the authorities released N1.7bn to the National Universities Commission to fund the scheme for that session. This, he explained, comprised N1.09bn from the Petroleum Development Trust Fund and N602.4m from the Tertiary Education Trust Fund. He put the total disbursement so far for that edition at N1.3bn. He added that for the second edition, which was for 2013/2014 session, 104 persons, comprising 76 males and 28 females, enjoyed the scholarship. The scheme instituted in 2012 Jonathan is part of the Federal Government’s efforts towards achieving the goals of Vision 20:2020 and the Transformation Agenda. The beneficiaries of the scheme, our correspondent gathered, would serve as catalysts of change and agents of scientific and technological advancement. http://www.punchng.com/education/panel-recommends-102-for-foreign-scholarships/ |

ArewaWarrior: This is exclusively based on merit. There is the PTDF scholarship which caters for fairness and all that. Note that nobody from Bayelsa state won it last year and I don't think it changed this year. 3 Likes |

I was supposed to apply for this scholarship, but i was busy helping my reaction engineering lecturer with his PHD research that i completly forgot about it, and it still pains me till date. My younger sister, a physics genius in her own right , applied, wrote the aptitude test ,and passed. Her name is right up there. She is going to major in nuclear physics abroad. 8 Likes |

I think there are one or two issues on which Yoruba and Eboes need to unite and this is one of them This programme must NOT be ditched in the name of "federal character" The Person in the photo with Buhari is Dr Ahmed Adamu he has called for the programmed to be scrapped http://www.punchng.com/politics/scrap-n100bn-foreign-scholarships/ and now some youths are calling for him to be made minister http://www.vanguardngr.com/2015/04/appoint-commonwealth-youth-chair-as-nigerias-youth-minister-groups-urge-buhari/ 1 Like 1 Share

eCollynzo: All of your likes that talk of the North do NOT know the North, most have never been there but comfortably sit behind a keyboard and talk rubbish like yourself. Even if Federal character is pushed aside and whatever criteria is deployed in a selection process, the north will have ample representation. The population is superior to all other geographical zones, regardless of poverty and almajiris that wonder about, a decent portion can challenge on an international level talk less of national. This stereotype of ignorance in the North and intelligence in the South which you promote says alot about how poorly wired you are my friend. The PRESSID list is unacceptable and it stinks of foul play. Mark me next years list is going to be very very different. |
