    I doubt about this news. When did Nuer people know the benefit of Education? I know that those people who are given that scholarship are Nuer, but, however, I’m glad that when they finished their study, they will be rebels. There is a saying said that “a bird of the same feathers fly together”.

    Dear Guys!

    Funds is not the matters, but what matters is that will they achieved their education and come with good degree in Sudan? There is no one who study outside Sudan had a good degree apart from late Dr. Garang in University of Califonia here in USA.

    Nobody who is fool to understand in education. May be due to some circumstances that make majority of them to delusive about education.

    Where many educators, there is many politicians that can sabotages the government policies and these always force people to form their rebellions.

    Let them study so that they can eradicate poverty and illiteray in tehir rregions.

    Well done mr. Minisiter for that good work.
