Dear FlexiSAF,

Thank you for at least saying something now and obviously you reacted because of the threat! so if not because of the threat, you wouldnt have answered. It is very pathetic and so obvious how ''YOU'' are playing with the emotions of potential scholars just because you are in the position of authority, momentarily. Before I ventilate my opinion, let me congratulate you on opening a Nairaland account to listen to the actual owners of the money (the public).

You have refused to reply emails sent to you and you have refused to answer questions posed herein for you. I have monitored with kin interest your activities herein and how you selectively answered questions that will slaughter your continued stay in the business of PTDF. You and PTDF are trustee of public fund and you MUST communicate the public often and update them with the latest news with respect to their fund, yet you failed. Your silence has subjected some noble scholars here into emotional trauma and academic inept vis a vis your spontaneous incommunicado. I have spent pretty time in UK, USA, CANADA and many advanced country and we all (including you) know how effective they are in communication and otherwise for public peace. In Nigeria, the custody of public is in your trust (PTDF inclusive) and you kept the owners of the fund in secret and subjected them into series of assumptions both positive and negative because you (PTDF inclusive) have refused to talk to the owners of the fund, (the public). Some people here said that they sent you email but you refused to acknowledge nor reply them as if they are all fools. I am fully aware that you are part and parcel of PTDF and contrary you MIGHT not have say in the activities of PTDF but you can on advisory ground inform them of the anger, rage and frustration they subjected the owners of the fund into. Honestly I wont tell you and PTDF the next line of action of a hungry and angry MAN until you let it loose.

Having said the opinion of some noble scholars and the some public herein, let me in a more subtle way advice you to always apply customer care methodology by attempting questions posed here for you and by so doing will bring forth a lasting peace and tranquillity needed to pilot the affairs of the noble scholars. Having said that, I look forward to you effective communication hence forth.

YOURS ELLACITY




flexisafsupport:


The role FlexiSAF plays is quite misunderstood. FlexiSAF provides infrastructure to help register candidates for the Scholarship, provide a platform for shortlisting applicants for the Exam and also a platform for taking the exam.
After the exam is concluded, we submit the result to the PTDF which at that point, our job for the Scholarship is kind of done. At this point, all these tasks I have mentioned have been handled by FlexiSAF and have submitted the results.
It would rather be unfair to PTDF and FlexiSAF if you would simply not even place a call to the support line to understand what is happening but rather seem to want to resort to threats to have our way. This is UnNigerian. 07069414970 is the number to call.
PTDF is quite aware of the time applicants have before the admission deadline is closed. No organization would go through all the stress just to give up on releasing the list. Even if you want to use the social media to air our grievances, let us do it in such ways that the PTDF is moved to make the decisions they need to make faster but not through threats.
Thanks very much for your understanding

Am I the only one here that thinks some people who played with their emotions, on their own, are blaming it on PTDF.

The scholarship is a previllage not a right, it is suppose to be for the best of the best (academically, mentally, emotionally and in character).

If this forum is reflective of the best my country has to offer, then we are in serious problem.

Many people need to learn the art of holding their cool until the right moment. All the outburst against PTDF and Flexistaff is premature to say the least. I have previously processed a study visa to the U.K. in three days, without priority service.

I personally feel the amount of hatred and frustration on this thread can even scare people with reasonable information regarding the list.

Don't worry, I have prepared my cross and will happily crucify myself.

Dear friends can we channel all our arsenals on ptdf and leave flexisaf alone. It is obvious that Flexisaf cannot help us at this point.

PTDF is a privilege not a right but we "paid" to apply. If each and everyone of us didn't, it may be "debateable"

Even lotteries have better transparency than this disgrace.

That people here are challenging status quo doesn't make us less mentally or emotionally stable, and if PTDF management is the best our country has to offer then we are in serious problem.

Dear FlexisafSupport,
If you are telling us you do not have any information to give us, two months after the CBT YOU conducted, then you are just as clueless and rustic as the current PTDF management is. Shame of a country. All scholarship bodies that advertised last year concluded their selection process since June! Because we are not carrying guns like Niger Delta militants right? We deserve to be treated like we don't exist. Isokay

There should be an established timeline for all events - see Chevening Scholarship. PTDF has been in the business of awarding scholarships for a very long time. They can develop an established procedure from their many years of experience.

PTDF have not acted responsibly. For the fact that they charged application fees for this scholarship, applicants should at least know their fate. Look at Chevening scholarship. They have a time frame for everything as it pertains to the scholarship. A friend has received his letter already and things are going on as planned.
PTDF have no excuse whatsoever. I mean, why ask people to apply, raise their hopes and then do things to suit their own agenda? That's pure filth.
Going forward, PhD applicants can find alternative sources of funding their education. Write the GRE and apply to schools in the USA. With some publications, your chances are higher. Same goes for Canada though it can be more competitive.
For the UK, If you're a top performer (First class + publications), you can apply to Oxbridge and Imperial. They have scholarships for top students. Imperial has 50 scholarships for PhD applicants from around the world yearly. Oxbridge is competitive but you never know until you apply. With some publications and a masters degree (2.1 Undergraduate degree), I was able to get in.
Some other schools have too but very few especially for International students.University of Warwick has scholarships for PhD applicants as well.

Good luck.

The advert usually comes out in November every year.
This thread is for MSc and PhD candidates who sat for the 2017 cohort. We are waiting (and some are fighting) for the names of successful candidates of which I am one of them.
I'll suggest you check the PTDF website in November, preferably daily.
