The Niger Delta Development Commission, NDDC, has awarded foreign postgraduate scholarships to 200 successful candidates under its 2025 scholarship programme.
No fewer than 30,000 candidates applied for the scholarship scheme, with about 6,000 qualifying through the computer-based test stage.
NDDC managing director Samuel Ogbuku presented the award letters to the beneficiaries at a brief ceremony on Thursday in Port Harcourt, a statement from the commission disclosed.
The beneficiaries were selected through a rigorous and transparent qualification process that was devoid of political interference or external influence.
Mr Ogbuku said the 200 candidates were successful in both the computer-based test and oral interview before being awarded the scholarships.
“I commend our panellists for their dedication and impartiality in raising the bar. This has ensured that only the most qualified candidates got selected.
“I urge the beneficiaries to steer clear of criminal activities or any conduct that can bring disrepute to the country,” the NDDC boss stated.
