Hi Ginevra,
No scholarship was awarded to any member of the Wikimedia User Group Nigeria. This is
worrisome as Nigeria will not be represented at Wikimania. I don't think this is a
good idea and I wonder why American and European countries have more representative than
Africa. This is demoralizing and the community is not happy about it.
Warmest regards,
Olatunde Isaac,
