So what's your point & the way forward?
My point is that we want quick fix. We don't want any responsibility or sacrifice from our side. So our best hands suddenly become evil to us when they bring out policies that we pay in future.

Eg. Madam. Gèlè suggest that custom duty on vehicle imported to the country be increased. It was a fantastic policy that we favour us if we can stick to it for 4 to 5 years. But we are not ready for such sacrifice and we sabotaged it and call them names.

Even Gej was a good man but we rubbish him and that continues till this day

Unfortunately after the scholarship they will claim and utilize the brain to the development of their country.

This is systematic brain drain from young age.

I don't see it as brain drain when the country has plethora of smart minds but few resources available for them to break even. They should go

Congrats Mr Ositade. 👏

Nigeria is blessed with brilliant folks. If only the country will embrace Merit ahead of Nepotism/Tribalism, & let our best brains be in the driving seats of every sector.


Lolz, have you ever had dealings with a genius in real life before.... Most of them are EVIL genius, no heart!!!

That's why those countries are successful. This is a typical brain drain. It's a pity that no Nigerian university is offering him scholarship. No wonder their level of decay.

When this boy japa now and use his brain to develop his choice country, Nigeria will still remain wat it is. Rubbish country undecided

We are coming to join him.

That's why I love USA.

They give out Scholarships like water.

The best is for people to apply for UK M.Sc from Nigeria. Do the course in Nigeria. You don't need to travel.

Get your M.Sc Degree and apply for Fully Funded P.hD program in USA which covers (Tution, Stipend, Accomodation).

And the best part is you don't need to pay close to £15,000 as school fees to UK Government.

You would be a paying about £1,900 for your M.Sc or even lesser because you will be given a huge Discount.

Then use the UK M.Sc and move to USA via Fully Funded Ph.D.

Very easy.

I love USA.

USA and Scholarship are like bread and beans.

Very easy to get.
I’m also a beneficiary of such mercy. I spent a whole semester thanking God o!

A 17-year-old Nigerian student, Oluwafemi Ositade, has secured full scholarships to multiple Ivy League universities in the United States, including Harvard, as well as other top notch universities in Canada and Qatar.

He is a member of the Class of 2023 of The Ambassadors College, Ota, and the scholarships are worth over $3.5 million.

Ositade’s astounding success stems from his exceptional performance in the SAT where he achieved a perfect score in Maths (800/800) and a near-perfect score of 760 out of 800 in reading and writing and his CGPA of 4.04/4.0 from college.

Armed with these remarkable achievements and track record of excellence, Ositade received 14 scholarships from renowned institutions nine of which are full ride scholarships (covering tuition, accommodation, allowance and all other student’s expenses).

The universities that have extended scholarship offers to Ositade are Harvard University, Brown University, Duke University, University of Toronto Lester B Pearson Scholarship, Wesleyan University, Carnegie Mellon University in Qatar, University of Miami, Howard University, Stetson University, Fisk University, University of Toronto, Mississauga Campus, University of Toronto St. George Campus, University of Toronto, Scarborough Campus and Drexel University.

His academic prowess extends beyond standardised tests. In the Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME), with a score of 358, he ranked as the second best in Nigeria for the year 2023.

Additionally, in the 2023 West African Senior School Certificate Examination (WASSCE), Ositade boasts of eight A’s and one B2. It is also worthy of note that Ositade has represented his schools in lots of local and international competitions where he has also proven his academic prowess with many laurels won for himself and his school.

With a strong passion for Quantum Computing and Mathematics, he intends to pursue a degree in Computational Physics, and he is poised to make significant strides in his chosen field.

Ositade remarked that these feats could not have been possible without his zeal and the preparatory efforts of his alma mater, The Ambassadors College, Ota (a Christian Co-Educational School). The school’s structured academic programme, blending British and

Nigerian curricula, equipping students with the necessary skills and knowledge to excel on both local and international platforms. Offering classes and specialized courses such as SAT, IELTS, and A-levels, the school ensures that students like Ositade not only achieve stellar academic results but also position themselves for coveted scholarships in Ivy League universities.

Upon receiving the life-changing news of his acceptance to Harvard, Brown, Duke and other Prestigious universities, the 17-year-old expressed profound elation, citing that he owes his achievements to God Almighty who has been the bedrock of his success.

His achievements underscore the plethora of opportunities available for Nigerian youths to thrive on the global academic stage.

That's impressive!

Congratulations to the young lad, 'Femi Ositade on the educational feat, and congrats to Seun Osewa's family on this significant milestone from Ambassadors College (which was founded by the Osewas).

Femi should go for either the Harvard University or Duke University scholarships in order to unleash his full potentials.

GEJ is not a good man as far as I'm concern. During GEJ period, my brother left me in 400L and went for service, came back from service and still met me in 400L. Please don't talk about GEJ, that drunk president!!!

While some miserable children of hate fraudulently put themselves at number on WAEC none existing rating and celebrating with pumps we are breaking new grounds in the international community with wondrous accomplishments that leave observers cupped their jaws in awe.

Children of hate can only dream and that's where it does.

Respect the raw materials. We are the raw deal
