President Buhari's media aide, Tolu Ogunlesi, who is also Head of Digital Communication for the Nigerian President, has slammed @Blacktolive, a Twitter handle which celebrates anything concerning black excellence, for celebrating Esther Okade, a 13-year-old British-Nigerian who is set to earn her PhD by 2018.

Esther Okade came to limelight in 2015, after a CNN report revealed that the British-Nigerian youngster was one of U.K's youngest college freshmen, after she enrolled at the Open University, a UK-based distance learning college, in January 2015 at the age of 10 and was on top of her class.

Tolu Ogunlesi who took to Twitter to disclose how he feels about Esther Okade's celebration on Black to Live, said that he sees nothing worth celebrating there, and further asked what a 13-year-old will be doing with a PhD.

The guy isn't politically correct.
I think Buhari is the cause.

Tolu Ogunlesi could have waited to see what the girl will do with the PhD before that moronic question and imagination.

So far Ogunlesi was preparing for a primary 6 living certificate at that age 13 isn't a reason to downplay what a 13year old will do with an earned PhD certificate.

Well, it's worth celebrating.

We have a genius in our midst that is worth celebration.

typical yoruba guy





but if it was a yoruba person, he will be worth celebrating





African mentality.......if only he knows the worth

Only a MO.w.RON would ask this type of question. She could end up at NASA you know or somewhere better.

Hmmmm, at 13 me I still dey JSS 2 and this one don dey hunt PhD.





But to be sincere she is too young for PhD though she might be brilliant but what about her maturity and intelligence.

e pain am

It's worth celebrating biko
Her mate never pass Junior WEAC

All the whole Nigerian politicians that has the so called 'PhD" + bubu that doesn't have anyone is not better than that "12 yo girl"

She is even more educated that the dullard of a president

Where did Buhari get all this people from sef? So because Buhari does not have WAEC at 76, someone else cannot have PhD at 13 abi?

Good for her.

Let her start carrying file around early enough

13 years? How?

A nice question to ponder on. After PhD.... What next? Lecturing? Who is she gonna lecture? Just wondering though....

She's not a Nigerian sha? Good for her...our president and Oshomole don't have primary 6.

I understand where the dude is coming from!!

If the president of the most populous black nation on earth can attain to that position without a common secondary school leaving certificate, and still has a prof as his assistant, then what is there to celebrate about a girl bagging a phd at the age of thirteen?



Who's the bastard that laid an eternal curse on this country

Who we offend?

He is right sha.

Some people have extremely amazing memories, so they can handle anything that has to do with books very easily without stress at all. But working in real life(after school) is more than what you read in school books but more of real life stuffs like communication and advanced human relationship.

I also doubt if she is eligible for some kinda real big jobs before she's 18 or there about. I think there are laws in developed countries that govern labour ages.

The truth is that she is a minor. Not just a minor, but a really minor minor.

I just hope that she will be able to cope sha.

Small minded fellow

Uncle tolu why u dey beef on d girl progress na?... Na brains carry am go there... Watin be ur own sef!!

Wow that's a scholar. ..

Does dt Tolu know or xstand the word/term "prodigy"?
