Ideally it cost 4 times as much to train a PhD than to train a master's candidate and so on the basis of minimizing training cost they will like invest more of these extra slots in to the Masters candidates than the PhD candidates.

I don't want you to forget that PhD stands a better chance in this probability. The number of PhDs interviewed per state where less than 15 in most of the state. Cross river has like 6 PhDs interviews. Edo state has even 15 PhDs interviewed. Beyelsa has less than 8 interviewed and so on. So you see PhD candidate should be singing praises already if it actually 11 PhD per state.

Guy, you sound so sure and specific about the date, how come? Anyway, I'm set for the induction ceremony. Cheers

Very cheering news. Quick question; last year the award was worth $30,000. Does anyone know if it will be increased this year? (this is because, for some the tuition and accommodation alone can't be fully catered for with that amount, and they might need to start making arrangements to cushion the effect of this). Also, the Induction, where does it take place; PH or Abuja? Thanks.

The award is now $35k. Don't quote me sha. That is the reason the interview panel were very interested in your school fees. Beyond £18k may not be entitled for the award except of course you convinced them of how you intend to cover the gap at the interview session. I think the list will be out this week. Keep ur finger crossed!
