SCHOLARSHIP ALLOWANCE

STOP COMPLAINING FOR REFUNDING SCHOLARSHIP ALLOWANCE!

(CHANGE BEGINS WITH ME!)

It's not longer a news that most of Yobe State Civil Servants that have recently received scholarship allowances are expected to refund the money to the state government or they can't get their this month's salary.

Sadly, most of the victims are clamouring for the action taken by the state government complaining that there are some people that were sent abroad to study and most of them are the sons and daughters of some top government officials spending millions of naira on them but for a civil servant to receive just  20-30 thousand as scholarship allowance is something tremor. Many people are currently complaining over the action but the truth is for a country to be successful in the fight against corruption "change is to begin with me/you".

Despite the facts that the state government has earlier written boldly on the Scholarship Form that the allowance is mainly for the students that are not in the civil service payroll but people have neglected the instruction and filled the forms. The truth is if the state government will be blamed for MALTREATMENT then we should also blame ourselves for being GREEDY. Though I don't know if the state government is paying money for those that are in the In-Service but the truth is we should allow our younger generations to enjoy the allowances instead of congesting the system which can easily lead some students to lost it.

It was found out that the refundable money will be used to pay of those students that didn't get their own yet. It's remarkable!

Be wise, smart and think critically, is a message!
