SOS CALL ON THE RIVERS STATE GOVERNMENT: YOUR RSSDA STUDENTS IN THE UK ARE BEGGING, STRANDED, NEGLECTED AND WILL BE DEPORTED BACK TO NIGERIA IN FEW DAYS. PLEASE, ACT SWIFTLY.
CAVEAT: This post is not an expression of hate; I am not a beneficiary of “anything” from Rivers State. I am not a beneficiary of ANY Scholarship from Rivers State, dem no know me and I am happy. The crux of the matter is, my people (Rivers people under the RSSDA and RSSB) are suffering and being disgraced here in the UK.
I will not dissipate my time disabusing the minds of people with preconceived notions about me, whether or not I hate the Governor, please believe what you want to believe. I am I and I do not impress people to curry favour massaging their ego with lies. Notwithstanding
Please I don’t want to mention names here. In fact, some have asked what my gross and grouse is? Well, I have no personal interest (believe me if you like). Thing is, back in Nigeria I have been a Students leader (I was one time NURSS this and NURSS that) and here in the UK I have been one time Nigerian Students President too. So, it behoves me to care about the affairs of Young people and Students, especially, Students from my primary Constituency (Rivers State). I reiterate, I have nothing personal, I am begging the Rivers State Government to respond swiftly to this. I have my facts. Save the Souls of your Students, yes, save their Souls.
MY SIMPLE SOLUTION TO SAVE THE SITUATION
1. Having worked with Students and some Universities here in the UK as a former Nigerian Students President, I can categorically tell that; if the State Government can agree to write to these Universities directly via the State Commissioner of Education that they will offset the bills, it will give respite instead of allowing “vendors” do that on their behalf. Most Universities here respect Government letterheads and stamps than nicely worded essays from vendors. Please, act fast and save the Souls of your Children.
2. Look for where to borrow and send the Students for their accommodation and feeding money respectively, please don’t make them steal or be involved in prostitution. Remember, prostitution is “halal” here. Our beautiful sisters may choose this path just to survive; likewise, our brothers may start doing drugs or get involved in other vices.
Finally, it is quite unfortunate that this is coming at a time when the visionless brawl between the APC and PDP in the State is heightened as result of greed and mad quest for power. No doubt, I am being misconstrued as an opposition or hater of Governor Amaechi. Please, I am begging the State Government to “ignore” the messenger but heed the message, act fast and save your delegates and Rivers State from this shameful embarrassment. I am not working for the PDP or APC, I am for justice, just help my Brothers and Sisters. After all, you decided to award them the Scholarships. Truth is, I will not accept that sickening line of “There is NO MONEY” in the State, where the money go na? I reiterate, neither my family nor me is a beneficiary of any of your Scholarships, but I cannot swallow the sufferings of these innocent Rivers Students. It is disgraceful, painful and inhumane. Please, ignore where I may not have been polite, just help these Children and forget my waffling. Please, borrow again to save the situation.
Thank you in anticipation.
