You are myopic fool.

Getting a doctorate is not an achievement. The world won't remember you because you had a doctorate. You can only intimidate your kinsmen with it.

Count your achievements from world problems you have solved with your B.Sc and M.sc.

burst my head guy....

you r making a whole lotta sense....

These little gods. Like Lionel Messi. This totally defies OPC, MEND, IPOB etc.

Honestly o, but you know sometimes life has a way of compensating one.

These people are definitely brilliant. While I don't mean to be cynical, I'd like to say that the Nigerian orientation towards job creation is faulty. We need to arise from our educational dogma which clearly pits us as job seekers, rather than job creators. Although some of them didn't attend Nigerian Universities but I won't revere their achievements if they don't solve part of world's problems, e.g. creating jobs for Nigerians.

Imagine this proposition: every Nigerian graduate with good grades, say 4.0 or above, should create 50 or more jobs as early as 7-8 years after graduating...

before I open The thread e sure me say na SW people go dominate The list

That's how babcock student graduated as best MSC student in University of Ibadan
After they all claim private university student are dullard.

You're very correct..I remember this argument..I wanted to talk about it and am glad you have already said it..She went to UI and was this best there, showing that there are private school students at least on the same level as federal or state university students..I have always maintained this position because I know it's true..I've worked with some Covenant peeps and know one or two Babcock people in my industry..They're good at what they do..

A PhD trains people to do research and contribution originally to existing knowledge-base or even create a brand new knowledge..I agree that a PhD can do a research that will proffer pieces of advice that if implemented will create jobs but the people whose achievements are being celebrated here are not PhD in Entrepreneur or HR or the likes..

I am really trying to restrain from making certain comments...But my brother, all I have to say is that a PhD trains you to do research and contribution originally to existing knowledge-base or even create a brand new knowledge..I agree that a PhD can do a research that will proffer pieces of advice that if implemented will create jobs but the people whose achievements are being celebrated here are not PhD in Entrepreneur or HR or the likes..

I agree with you that a PhD is a research degree but we're different from the western world. Their PhD holders don't have to be saddled with the responsibility of creating jobs. In the US for example, during Halloween, the masks and costume sellers are being patronised rigorously. That's a job. Our social, economic and other lifestyles in Nigeria are not as diverse as the western world. We need our brightest minds to do the thinking for us. A PhD holder in the US cannot be mandated to create jobs because even the ice cream vendor earns more than the minimum wage in Nigeria.

In Singapore, PhD holders teach secondary schools. In Nigeria, why can our PhD holders be saddled with the responsibility of creating sustainable jobs? We are different, we need to think differently. BTW, how many of our PhD holders are breaking new grounds in academic research? Relatively few!

Dr Kolapo Muyiwa Oyebola bagged his PhD at 28. He was UNILAG's overall best PhD graduate at the last convocation ceremony.

Congrates to all of them, I celebrate them all. But I celebrate people who are innovative and inventors most especially in IT. People like Seun Osewa, bill gates, Larry Page and Sergy Brin

They are many more like this, that are not well celebrated due to the sentiment on their schools.
Well who cares about sentiment when we are making money.

With due respect to u and d OP, Dr Shodipe was not, I must emphasise, the best MSC student in UI.

Although she performed creditably well, there was a 10 point gap between her and the best graduating MSC student that year. Thus, she was the best in Babcock but not in UI. Tha[/color[color=#000099]]t is not to say she's not brilliant, but facts, being very sacred, must be preserved.

My first reaction was to ignore the misinformation but I changed my mind because I AV a duty to the academic community.

Even though I have some further reservations about the thread, disclosing them may in itself destroy everything in this thread.

Wow! they are all Science and Engineering PhDs except the last one. Let me look up their publications in Elsevier and Scopus to qualitatively analyze their inputs to our academic community.

Shymm3x:


It is impossible based on the age up there. 16 year olds aren't allowed to start degree courses in the UK without A-levels, Btech, or foundation degree.

Then 4 years in Uni to study Chemical Engineering and 3 years for Ph.D.

Someone lied. The guy was most likely 24 or older when he finished, based on the age he finished sec school. Still nice though.

Karl didn't lie bro. He was in the same class with my wife at Nottingham and he was simply gifted

this is what I notice around any vicinity I find myself.

This is impressive! How they manage to achieve this, considering the quantitative enormous amount of naysayers, pessimist, unhealthy academic rivalry is indeed impressive!

Lastly, education isn't wisdom and wisdom isn't education. Which ever they possess, I hope it is utilized for the sole purpose of encouraging every citizen of Nigeria, therefore, making our country a better place for us all to comfortably reside within in peace.

People rushing to accumulate knowledge without making effort to APPLY the one they already have.

may ur days be long.you said it all but congrats to them it aint easy cos am 25 and am serving and i didn't even repeat a class so i guess this ones are geniuses

Misterdhee1:

No be everybody go rich like dangote.. Are u sure these phd holders arent comfortable either?

Don't get me wrong, am only saying our kids should acquire financial knowledge simultaneously with scholastic skills!

Despite the amount the graduates produced yearly by my beloved Nigerian, we are still in this mess, why? Because most graduates just want to get a job and fail to use their creative minds in creating new things.

Your right, everybody cannot be like Dangote, but if we could add more Dangote's into our economy it would benefit us all.


Gaining a Phd is not an easy feet to achieve, but what's more important is using that acquired knowledge to make the world a better place, that's what really matters!

Sir Newton, Albert E, etc made the world a better place through their creative minds!!! Hope you get the picture!

And I'm just bagging my Masters at 25...


I can't complain tho.. Thank God

All is well with my soul, and at this age I'm still here
