It is worrisome to note that the art and social science students are not granted the same scholarship opportunities as given to their science counterparts. And not only scholarship : incentives accrued by the science students only little or known is enjoyed by the art students as opposed to the practice in other developed nations.Most competitions are organised for the sciences, and no wonder the majority of parents always want their wards to be science students. To mention a few STAN, NNPC ,SHELL, etc but in the case of art students maltina reading competition and other essay competitions which the brilliant science students can still partake .
It is my recommendation that the scientist are treated the same way as the art students,since it will help in facilitating an environment of equal opportunities which consequently will lead to even development of both departments.It is my plea to the government,corporate bodies and well meaning Nigerians to bring up competitions and scholarship opportunities in art related courses and subjects. This is ma plea
