You say the memo is fake, but here is what I do not understand.
I am a 2024 FSB scholar. Since our selection in 2024, none of us has received a single payment. Other awardees from previous batches have also not received their recent payments.
If the memo is fake, why are scholars not being paid at all? Is this scholarship still serving its purpose?
Please, when will the 2024 FSB scholars and other unpaid awardees finally get their payments? ๐

@ruffydfire This delay is creating serious, unnecessary hardship for students who depend on these funds for survival. Education shouldn't be a struggle of basic survival. The Federal Ministry of Education and the Federal Scholarship Board need to address this urgently!
INTERVENTION ON DELAYED PAYMENT OF NATIONAL AWARD SCHOLARSHIP FOR EDUCATION BURSARY AWARD (EBA) AND NIGERIAN SCHOLARSHIP AWARD (NSA)
We, the beneficiaries of the Federal Government Scholarship Scheme in Nigerian universities, Colleges of Education, Polytechnics wish to respectfully bring to your attention the continued delay in the payment of our 2024/2025 bursary awards.
It may interest you to know that these scholarship awards were given to us by the Federal Ministry of Education through an offer letter signed by the Federal Scholarship Board (FSB) dated 31st October 2024. We have since undergone several rigorous verification exercises, after which the Board informed us to await payment. To this day, disbursement has remained silent.
These funds are part of approved scholarship entitlements that students depend on for payment of tuition fees, purchase of textbooks and other academic materials, accommodation, and general welfare.
The prolonged delay has created serious hardship for students across various institutions in the country. Despite following due process and making necessary inquiries, there has been no clear timeline for payment or adequate communication regarding the situation.
We respectfully appeal to the relevant authorities to urgently look into this matter, provide transparent updates, and ensure the disbursement of these funds to the rightful beneficiaries.
This appeal is made in good faith by affected, law-abiding Nigerian students who are only requesting what has already been approved for their academic support and continuity.
We are grateful for your help and support in addressing this long-standing issue regarding the 2024/2025 bursary awards.
Thank you.
2024/2025 FSB BENEFICIARIES
People don't say it much, but financial stability has a large effect on how well you do in medical school
It's not easy to be hungry and be chasing distinctions
What happened at the University of Uyo Teaching Hospital yesterday is a national disgrace and must not be treated lightly!
Calling on @officialEFCC to promote lawful conduct; to publicly call the officers involved in the act to order, @Fmohnigeria@nighealthwatch to protect our healthcare system, and the presidency @NGRPresident and @NGRSenate to look into this, so this doesnโt happen to any healthcare worker again.
@UN@WHO@WHONigeria@UNICEF_Nigeria
Justice must prevail. Say NO TO VIOLENCE AGAINST MEDICAL PRACTITIONERS. Enough is Enough.
We need to go on a Nationwide strike for the atrocity that happened in Uyo.
How do you assault Healthcare workers?
Moreso, A Professor of Cardiothoracic surgery was assaulted. What???
That's not acceptable.
