Dereformer: Mennnn, I envy this family. This is indeed a noble family. It is not about wealth. It is about determination and focus. I know many wealthier families in Nigeria whose children are vagabonds.

If the Okonjos are moslems their degrees will be in the act of bombing and terrorism. I still remember Abdulmutalab.

I hate Islam with passion.
And God Almighty hate you in highest degree of passion.Watch your life out from this moment

Impressive!!

However, I just can't get my head around the number of people viewing this thread, Nigerians and you lot's innate over-gratification of paper qualifications.

Their mum graduated magna cum laude from the same Harvard and held an impressive portfolio at World Bank, but she has been a failure of epic proportions at transferring all that over-bloated CV into real life situations, despite being in-charge of the country's finances for more than 10 years combined now. I just hope they're different from their mum.

It's high time you lot started gratifying shakers and problem solvers, and not just having low self-esteem about paper qualifications. undecided undecided

Lord, have mercy on me too. This is just so amazing. Throughout that lineage, there is no single child that went astray or couldn't meet the requirements. This isn't just about money, it's about a specially gifted family.

Despite the amount of time some people spend on the internet, they still spew their ignorance (with pride) all over the place. And these are supposed to be the leaders of tomorrow?

..........

In case you don’t know, Harvard is not about money. It is about ability!



Not always, it is also about pedigree, if your parents attended harvard, well you have a higher chance of getting in. It is also less drain on the school's resources because you are more likely to be able to afford the tuition


You need to prove BEYOND REASONABLE DOUBT that you belong to the top strata of achievers - irrespective of your race and age - before you are accepted into the school. Besides, most people use STUDENT LOANS to fund their studies. It is almost automatic.

The student loan is not almost automatic, it is, especially for graduate students



Harvard is NEVER about money!

Your categorical statement is wrong.


Ngozi's children should be celebrated ....some Companies only employ graduates from Harvard?

Please give an example of such a company, clean your mouth, such a company does not exist.



Or have you ever heard of an Harvard graduate being “unwillingly” jobless? I don’t think it’s possible!
[/quote]

yes I have, you will be surprised.



Invest in your life by spending time reading about value adding stuff. You don’t have to play the internet idiot; leave that to the others.

This is the only true statement in your epistle!!

I can bet with my xxxx that they all went into Harvard on scholarships. Like someone said, Harvard and other IVY league universities as well as Stanford and Caltech is more about intelligence and scholarship than cost. There are tons of financial support if your are smart enough to be admitted into these schools.

Besides, their parents (father is a neurosurgeon and mother was a WB VP) are very well to do and could have afforded any expenses not covered by the scholarships they might have had.

Her children are no longer schooling and besides when did she join your system? She spent most of her time abroad. She is not Nigeria's problem. Go talk to Tinubu and Obasanjo, Buhari and IBB, Abacha and others who destroyed your system

Flawless~diva:

Chai, you have a typical Nigerian mentality.
It's easier to get into Absu medical school, try unilag or UI and see if you'll enter. Like the person whom you earlier quoted, it's about one's abilities not necessarily money or academic qualities(tho is part). One can be admitted into Harvard and obtain some form of financial Aid. There's nothing like if its education, or Engineering. You have not heard of Harvard business, medical or law school eh.
This comparison you brought up is not necessary. None of them studied Engineering, i'm sure they would have gone to the very best.

You really do not know what you are talking about. Harvard Business School is the most competitive of all Harvard Schools.

As long as I still believe she has made life vulnerable for Nigerians, in one way or the other, congrats to their children's, it takes brain & huge money to survive that...


Least i forget, she's the backbone of subsidy removal, where is money saved from that Instead they went ahead to collect loan from China *crying*

You should at least do yourself the justice of googling up Harvard before embarrassing your family and country on the social media.

In case you don’t know, Harvard is not about money. It is about ability!

You need to prove BEYOND REASONABLE DOUBT that you belong to the top strata of achievers - irrespective of your race and age - before you are accepted into the school. Besides, most people use STUDENT LOANS to fund their studies. It is almost automatic.

Harvard is NEVER about money!

Ngozi's children should be celebrated because gaining admission into such a school is an achievement on its own. Why do you think some Companies only employ graduates from Harvard?

Or have you ever heard of an Harvard graduate being “unwillingly” jobless? I don’t think it’s possible!
