Do they pay Desopadec Bursary to online banks like Kuda?
Enoch,
I recommend you use a conventional commercial bank.
Why is that they don’t pay urhobo students this desopadec bursary.
Please I need reply
Am an urhobo student
Victory,
Urhobo students have been paid.
What bank are you using to receive your payment?
Am Urhobo.. My bursary hasn’t been paid.. I’m using zenith bank… I accurately registered for myself… And also helped others… They have been paid… Isoko people to be precise.. but I haven’t been paid
Hopefully,
You will receive your payment soon.
I filled but they now asked for BVN
They’ve hacked the account
For registration I don’t understand
What problem are you experiencing with the scholarship portal?
i haven’t received payment yet
have they started paying
Yes, DESOPADEc has started payment of the Bursary.
have they started paying now
i haven’t received yet
Yes.
Why is there favoritism in payment, I have registered for two years I wasn’t payed, when I inquired some person’s that were paid Said they send their details to their persons who are working up there.the payment is nolonger about qualifications and eligibility. It has become partial.
Is it too late to apply now and can I get the letter of identification from the president of my school association instead of my HOD because there is no ethnic association here?
Yes, Runor
You can still apply and get the letter from the President of your school association.
Please sir I’m having problem I can’t create the profile it is not working
Try again.
It could be a network problem.
I school in a private university in ibadan, where students who are from Delta state are so few so there is no urhobo ethnic association in my school.
Then, get the letter from your head of department.
How much do they pay?
Thirty thousand Naira
Please i applied on the 24th December, when will i receive payment?
You will receive your payment next year.
Which month
No date is out
Hi, can I use a letter from a barrister or lawyer because I don’t have a letter from the student union?
No, Kate
Get the letter from the student leader at your school.
A letter of Identification from the Student Union Chapter President of their Ethnic Nationality.
From where am I to obtain this?
Olayinka,
You will obtain the letter from the ethnic association president in your school.
For example, from the Urhobo Student Union Association.
I school in a private university in ibadan, where students who are from Delta state are so few so there is no urhobo ethnic association in my school.
Janet,
Get the letter from your Head of Department.
When is the deadline for this application
No specified application deadline.
But apply before the end of the month.
If you can’t get a recommendation letter can you still register
A letter of recommendation is a requirement for the DESOPADEC bursary application.
Do u select students who will be beneficiaries from the bursary program?
