But she can only claim it if she wires $1200 in cash to prove that she has a bank account.

Is this the same person I sent all that money to in response to an email? I was supposed to get three times more money back.
Great story.......wonderful opportunity from the most racist country ever.
“Their admissions processes are extremely selective,” Victory added. “They only accept the best of the best.”
But in the good old USA, advance placement schools cannot just accept the best and brightest of students because of racial equity. We are getting to be FUBAR.
Victory Yinka-Banjo isn’t a name one comes across every day.
Then she will stay here and run for representative, join the gang, and tell us about our white privilege.
Is she 8 feet tall?
Is her resume REAL? Or just another Nigerian Scam.
Is there anybody out there who still doesn’t understand why tuition is so high? Because only certain people pay it. The rest don’t. The kid who writes “BLM” 100 times in the application gets in free. The certified victim known as the female person of color gets a free ride.
This is inequality, not equality.

Three things almost no American youths have these days.
Nigerian teen gets 19 scholarship offers worth more than $5 million from the US and Canada...
Hopefully it’s a US and Canadian scam.. payback !
I’m sorry to rain on everyone’s feel good parade, but the IVYs , Stanford, etc... receive literally thousands of applications from kids equally as smart, from China, Korea, Taiwan, Singapore. None are offered full scholarships and certainly none are feted on CNN.
go to college and then retire...
I got an email from her, to me personally. She picked me to share the $5,000,000 USD with if I will only send her $120 in gift cards to pay for the transfer fees.
How lucky is that?

I’m going to have the young ones start self-identifing as Nigerian female youts. Beats paying for college.

All racist, white values.
She sounds like a really bright kid from smart parents (the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree). Chances are pretty good, though, that when she gets here in this systemically racist country she’ll be co-opted by the left to do their bidding.
Also how many equally or better qualified white or Asian kids would get that number of scholarships?
Yes, I’m a bit cynical when I read these stories, but I do wish her all the success in the world.
