good and correct info, thanks

This scholarship is not just for Imperial College London. Its actually for some schools in UK including University of Leeds, UK You can as well do some kinda research and locate what other schools offer this SPDC Niger Delta Scholarship. Note that most of these schools require that you must have secured at least a conditional offer for study for a course before you can apply for the scholarship. Good luck to all Niger Deltans

@Lekepee,
you are right, this scholarship is available in some of the UK universities. Interested Niger Deltans should please check on the schools scholarship page. Also, maybe, on SPDC website. Please let the house know all collaborating institutions.
One course! One Love!

nice one brother you too much

@Ninja_X
Thanks for the info, but kindly be informed that it is for Niger Delta o! So it covers all member states under the NDDC and that's the reason for the Heading "SPDC Niger Delta Post-Graduate Scholarship Scheme" they only gave examples

So All members whose state of Origin is from Delta, Edo, Rivers,Bayelsa, Imo and Akwa Ibom are encouraged to apply.

Good Luck! If you add am Jonathan, na you sabi....

El-Azar...The Niger Delta States are 9 and to complete your list you have Cross River, Abia and Ondo.

House take note.

House don't u think there is a slight difference btw NDDC and niger delta? Don't mind me o, there's actual need for stuff like this cos PTDF can't cater for us all.... But i myt be tempted to blv dt emphasis 'd be on d 3main states of SPDC's operations..

@P...O...P,
Thanks of the additional info, I just forgot that they are 9 member states of NDDC.

@ufuoma,
They only mentioned the those three coz they are the chief producers of crude oil in Nigeria.
