BREAKING NEWS! Nigerians listed in the 2023 World Top 2% Best scientists

Respect to the Universities mentioned in the list. Respect to CBN too, despite not been an academic/research institution, two people in CBN have been relentless in producing worldclass research in the last 3 years. Presidency should recognise and appreciate these people for putting Nigeria’s name on the world map.

Yes oooo


I'm well represented there. Making Nigeria 🇳🇬 proud

More wins ahead

SW dominated it

I have my doubts about this list. How can a country as backwards as Nigeria which has never produced a single Nobel prize winner in Physics, Chemistry or medicine dominate the globe?

No need to doubt. I am sure this is well collated

TINUBUS NAME IS MISSING.

The list is 100% correct. 99.9% of those in that list, including me, made it to that list because we did our research abroad. I couldn't conduct my research in my university because we had and still have no research facilities. It's unfortunate!!!
