No amount of hatred can change blessings from God.

Amen

you're free to celebrate your people by opening a thread for them, i don't really see the need for those tackling the op.@op.those achievements were possible when merit was still widely recognised, now it's state of origin, tribe and languagethus northerners now head and populate almost every federal parastatals.

This people can lie sha.

The first professor of medicine in Nigeria is professor theophilus ogunlesi from Ogun state . This is well known in Nigeria, and that's why we don't always believe in your aba made facts or statistics. .

Am very sure most of these things are lies .

Awon liepods, most of them are already masturbating over this lie cooked up by their brother

Besides that the first professor of mathematics in Nigeria is also debatable. Some said it was ezeilo while others said it was adegoke olubummo .

Chike obi was the first to have his doctorate degree in mathematics. But he became a professor in 1970, ezeilo and adegoke olubummo became professors in 1964. Six years before chike obi.. So liepods I wonder what you guys gain in twisting facts


And again, chike edozien was jst the first professor of Physiology alone and not physiology and anatomy

Professor adesanya grillo was the first professor of anatomy


If i should display the yorubas that were the first professors in different profession, you guys chest beating over here will beg this op to delete this nonsense thread

http://dailymail.com.ng/nigerias-professor-medicine-theophilus-ogunlesi-celebrates-93rd-birthday/ ;

Do you really have to tell them?....they already know the greatness of the Igbo race....they feel it everywhere


They probably dream of the igbos every night
