Truly, a write up with a slant towards dichotomy (Us vs them) is a good recipe to get clicks and responses. It is always a hit

Aliko Dangote conferred with a honorary PhD (Science) by the University of Ibadan, Oyo State. Congrat Dangote.

Congratulations to Alhaji Aliko DANGOTE.
But science is the wrong category. It should be Honorary Doctorate Degree in Economics or Business Administration.

WITH MONEY YOU CAN GET ANY HONOURARY DEGREE ANY WHERE
Re: Dangote Awarded With Honorary PhD (photo) by sigolisis: 7:55am On Nov 18, 2016
The truth of the matter is that these men deserve the awards given to them. When you go through their profile and their contributions nationwide you will agree with me. Ofcourse UI will not do such things just for money

wondering what they do with this Honorary PhD sef, isn't it just a title?


Almost same as what they do with non-hereditary chieftaincy titles awarded to people these days. Like Jabagan Borgu.

Abi o. I was expecting DBA (hc).

Except he read for a science degree previously at a lower level. Being primarily trained in science.

Money rules everything expect death. With money one can have but the M.sc and PhD the same day.
Re: Dangote Awarded With Honorary PhD (photo) by Kingbuhari(m): 8:20am On Nov 18, 2016
Awarded him With Honorary
PhD for doing absolutely nothing...money rule this enclave called Nigeria... Bill & Miranda Gate donate 80% of their wealth to charity, do you think if they are stingy like our billions, even biblical king Solomon wont come close to them in riches.. Nigeria is in a recession and
Africa's richest man who also
doubles as the richest black man
on the planet, Aliko Dangote is
busy advising the Federal
government to sell off national
assets, so he and his cronies can
buy.. Dangote is greedy motherfucker... One of the countless troubling
facts about this man Aliko
Dangote is that the brigandage
that he personifies and exploits to
enrich himself at the expense of
the inhabitants of the lower Niger
who rightly own the natural
resources he steals reflects the
culture he was born and
socialized in. Federal government gave Dangote sole
importation rights of many
products, effectively crippling
other businesses to the singular
advantage of Dangote in an
extreme oligopoly. Dangote was
also able to purchase Nigeria’s
assets, including Benue cement,
sold to him at less than half the
value we are just celebrating mediocrity, the monopoly Dangote is
given on cement pummeled him
into stupendous wealth as he sells
essential cement at double the
global price to Nigerians, thereby
extorting the nation that made him
in the perhaps the gravest act of
wickedness in history. Dangote
company declares double
quarterly profits from the milking
of Nigerians on every bag of
cement.

Chieftaincy title is probably only relevant in your community or within your jurisdiction.

but pple spend at least 3 years to bet a PhD.

Perhaps. But consider Jabagan Borgu, Turaki Adamawa and others with fame. The title adds alot of verve to them.

Consider also Esama of Benin. The title added much to his respect & popularity back in the early 1970s as a successful industrialist & businessman. Nationwide & beyond. Granted, the Esama title is granted traditionally to a successful, generous/philantropic, good looking, honourable and VERY NEAT person. As he's expected to always dress to impress & is often a key Oba's emissary. Esama/Igbinedion is rarely seen not decked in his chieftaincy attire.

As for an honorary PhD, it is a pity that in 9ja we like to abuse things anyhow. It was & is never meant to be used as a prefix or title. In more civilised/developed countries, that is how it is. The right way to use it is:

Mr. Lalasticlala Python PhD (hc).
Mr. Moderator Happybanner D.Litt (hc). Etc. cheesy grin

Never as Dr. Python or Dr. Happybanner. Because it is not an earned doctorate through research.

But go and preach that to an average title-crazy Nigerian.
