I am an ABU student(not from his department anyway).This man won the VC election 2 years back and he was denied.The emir never knew God has something grand in store for him.This is a lesson for those who discriminate on the ground of anything.

Stop playing "tribal cards" here
Re: Professor Andrew Nok Wins Alexander Humboldt Prize For 2013 by Nobody: 9:56pm On Aug 25, 2013
I love people making giant strive in the field of science especially in Nigeria and the world at large. What most people don't know is that both physical and biological science holds keys to development in a nation But ours is a neglected story in which wealth has become the yard stick for success. Without this 'major' efforts by people like this wealth wouldn't have been made. I look up to u Sir and prof Francis Idachaba
Re: Professor Andrew Nok Wins Alexander Humboldt Prize For 2013 by portage(m): 10:00pm On Aug 25, 2013
He is known in all the major scientific circles across the world which investigate the scourge of Trypanosomiasis as well as Malaria, and the snake venom. This shows that a rounded education in Nigeria can prepare one to perform well on a global, in this case, scientific platform. But he states that the special effort of the individual can make a big difference.

Somehow, i diagree with the bold angry angry
The man is a genius and has the drive to succeed on his own. SIMPLE smiley Nigerian educational system did not offer him any platform whatsoever. We should learn to call a spade a spade and stop praising the failed education system in Nigeria.
