Well,it may be inspiring to read this educational facts about the Finance Minister. The Minister of Finance Mrs Ngozi Oknonjo Iweala is a graduate of the prestigious Harvard University and so are her four children - Onyinye, Uzodinma, Ikechukwu and Uchechi.

Mrs Okonjo-Iweala studied Economics at Harvard, graduating magna cum laude with A.B in 1977.
Her eldest, Onyinye received her Ph.D. in Experimental Pathology from Harvard University in 2008 and graduated Harvard Medical School in 2010. Onyinye is a wife and mother.

Her son, Uzodinma Iweala received his A.B in English and American literature from Harvard and MD from Colombia University College of Physicians and Surgeons. He is the author of the critically acclaimed novel, Beasts of No Nation (2005).

Her other son, Ikechukwu Iweala studied social studies at Harvard and graduated in 2005.

Her last child Uchechi graduated from Harvard in 2009 and majored in Economics and don't forget that Mrs Okonjo-Iweala's parents also graduated from Harvard.

That's expected since the World Bank fits the tuition of her children in Haravard.

Btw, there's one of her sons who also graduated from Harvard who said he was going into rap music.

Things I read about our government this days are not pleasing at all. But reading about this woman, tells me Iweala is afterall a good mother to her children even if we see she's not performing well on her appointment on other children(Nigeria)... A word they say is enough for the wise....My brothers let us think on this.

Are u just realising that all our politicians that destroyed nigeria educational system will and don't allow their children to study in nigeria?this has been the practise for years,no politician or rich man who is wise will allow the future of his children to be jeopardise by nigeria educational system,even ppl who are not rich are rushing outside nigeria for better education.ppl go to countries like benin,ghana,uganda and Bangladesh for their uni education.that is why I said this is no news.she has the money and power and she is using it well for her kids not for nigerian kids

Does that mean Havard University is solely established/set up for the her family


On a serious note, im not expecting anything less than that.
May God continue to bless them and all of us.
